At the same time, most Apple users think they can survive and get over
these problems with only the regular updates from their manufacturer.
This is simply is not true.

Although such security updates are meant to improve the systems and
ensure some extra safety, they cannot guarantee for your system’s
complete security. If you have the fake feeling that you got nothing to
worry about, perhaps you should reconsider these thoughts. Other than
that, some Windows scripts can also affect the Mac OS X systems –
especially if you run a Microsoft operating system on your Mac. Such
cases are rare, indeed. Most scripts are developed for particular
systems, but this is not a general rule. You would be surprised to check
out some statistics and find out how exposed you are.

2008 was one of the toughest years for Apple, but also one of the most
profitable ones. The Apple market is quickly growing, regardless of the
products it relies on. The iPhones run the mobile world, as the Mac OS X
systems are said to be the safest, not to mention about the crazy
success iPad 2 had.

Although Windows is more user-friendly and people are somehow familiar
with it, switching is still a very reliable option. With the market
growing, the same rule applies to the hacking orientations. With more
potential victims, this field is more likely to be attacked with extra
weapons. A little over three hundred harmful applications coded for Mac
is an insignificant number for many users, especially when they think
about the one million viruses that can attack Windows powered computers.
But with time, things are definitely about to change.
