The difference between Macs and PCs

An excerpt of a question from a friend:

[I didn’t have time to work out an Internet connection before travelling.] Fortunately the neighbors seem to have an open [access point]. 🙂

Any tips on or precautions to observe…?

My response:

Do not start IE under any circumstance, have the latest virus stuff installed, and snag a copy of “SpyBot – Search & Destroy” and “Ad-aware“, you’ll need them.

Unless you’re talking about the Mac, in that case, then “no, you’re fine.” 🙂

That pretty much sums it up.
