"False alarm: Macs still immune to most viruses: Currently, Mac OS X is essentially immune to the types of viruses that are so common under Windows that Microsoft has finally decided to offer anti-virus software along with Windows. I haven't recommended that Mac users run anti-virus software since well before Mac OS X appeared, because there are no credible threats."

"I had the same problem as Feliks reported on 5 December. After updating to Safari 3.2.1 via Software Update on my 12 PB G4 (1GHz, 1.25GB RAM, OS X 10.4.11), every session resulted in a pegged CPU, pages that would not load, and an inability to cleanly quit the program. A temporary workaround was to disable JavaScript (Safari isn't my default browser so I didn't fully address it until I had a little free time). I now appear to have resolved the issue more permanently: the steps I took were to reinstall Safari 3.2.1 (using a full installer from Apple), repair disk permissions, and clean out cache system and user files (via AppleJack at boot time)."

"I can corroborate the intermittent inability to send mail. It happens many times, even on edit/send repetitions. Persistence appears to be the only cure. What really frustrates me is that for the entire period of the spinning pinwheel, I cannot intercede or do other work in mail." MacInTouch 4:30 PM

"So I can't remember exactly when this particular problem started, but in a bizarre fashion Mail will throw up its hands in protest and refuse to send my mail at certain periods. When this issue occurs I'll see the progress dial spinning in my Outbox for about three-five minutes, and then Mail will pop up with the message saying for whatever reason that it can't send the message. To fix it, I click 'Edit Message' and then immediately click Send. Every time, after I do this, it flawlessly works. I should also mention that I rarely, if ever, have problems receiving messages."
