Problems over at Sony’s PlayStation Network never seem to end . It’s a new day, so there’s a new security bug to deal with again .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . and:

An AppleCare Support Rep Talks: Mac Malware Is "Getting Worse" ( . zdnet . com/clicks?t=829173462-e629dafc051e6228fe316054b92e0eb9-bf&brand=ZDNET&s=5" target="_blank">ct . zdnet . com)

The number of reports of Mac malware being found in the wild are increasing . The view from inside an Apple call center says this threat is for real .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . more about Big Mac Attacks:

Apple To Support Reps: "Do Not Attempt To Remove Malware" ( . zdnet . com/clicks?t=829173470-e629dafc051e6228fe316054b92e0eb9-bf&brand=ZDNET&s=5" target="_blank">ct . zdnet . com)

A confidential internal Apple document tells the company’s front-line support people how to handle customers who call about malware infections: Don’t confirm or deny that an infection exists, and whatever you do, don’t try to remove it .


Me here: I don't like that attitude - to be sure denial is the worst form of customer relations I think and this will bite them in the nethers .

But we have a lot of baby rattlers this year. And very pre-seasonal tarantulas.

Well you can keep all your critters there! We don't have snakes, but we do have destructive 'possums and a couple of nasty spiders which emigrated here from Australia .
