Don’t Take Free Candy…

“Don’t take free candy” is a good principle — especially from strangers. Some have learned this the hard way according to this article http://it.slashdot.org/it/09/01/23/0127253.shtml which indicates that a trojan has been inserted into some pirated copies of iWork 09.

As any Mac user will already know, the best place to go for ANY updates, software or utilities is either under the “Update software” menu item under the Apple logo, or to visit this website: http://www.apple.com/startpage/.

You may want to save some money, but you should NEVER attempt to install pirated software. Why would you even consider it when there is so much you can download legally for free? Even at Download.com you can find many programs for the MacOS operating system.

So the best advice ever is to stay clean from all the fancy crap out there. It simply just ain’t worth it. 🙂
