Drama queens...

Let's not forget that anti-virus/spyware companies are going to try their damndest to convince Apple users that they need to buy their software.

This is hardly an adware program targeting OSX as the title suggests but rather an unverifiable piece of custom written code which seems to do little more than open a browser window.

Please please please ZDNET, stop being such a drama queen and report balanced Apple articles for a change!

You're only discrediting yourself amongst a growing community of users who know better.
