Attn: Mac Users
Well I got an interesting email today from Spymac. I registered there a while back to post on the forums.

Now Spymac is basically giving away equivalents to the old Apple itools service for free.

That means free hosting, free ical publishing (all the features that .mac has including browser access to calendars and public/private calendars). A free POP email account, WebDAV access (called "spydisk") and all the other cool stuff that itools had before it became a pay service.

*** .mac I say.

Even better, there appears to be no catch, the owners want to fund it through various additional services on the site.

Wahey, free stuff!!!!!!

There is no such thing as free stuff.

Unless you grab it real fast when noone is looking and make a run for it.

Shouldn't you be banned for saying that.

And it is free.

Spymac, Spydisk. It must be free, because it contains spyware.

Nope, just the name of the site.

Anyway, some people can't read the title of this thread. It says Attention Mac users.

Why don't the rest of you riff-raff go away and do a few security updates.

Agathon claims no such thing. Only that there is currently no OS X spyware (I've seen one candidate) nor any OS X viruses.

At least that's the general consensus.

Not a club thread any more than any one of the innumerable "urgent vital important security update for windows" threads is.

Surely people have better things to do than waste their time on issues which don't conern them.

Come on folks... stick on topic... and if all you want to do is bash Apple... don't bother. There will be NO threadjacking... unless you are just dying to get restricted
