Widget? Would that be a MAC application or download type thing?
If it is (and only if it is), am I the only one seeing a red flag here? A new member from overseas (to me anyway) on his first post says, in so many words, "Hey download this"

Welcome, thanks for the Mac widget link.
Mac tends to get overlooked a lot with third party add-on programmes.

Hey Hoosen...no offense intended

I just get concerned when I see unsolicited requests for people to visit a strange or new web site. The vast majority of people who post here for the first time usually introduce themselves, say a little bit about their love of Rolexes and it goes from there. Your post, your first one, just launched right into a request to go to a web site.

I'm not saying that this is definitely what you are doing but people need to know, especially successful people who do their banking and stock trading online, that while they are watching a Flash movie of a dancing Date Just or whatever, they are getting a piece of Spyware put on their hard drive.

A piece of spyware that just came out, that their antivirus does not know exists yet. And while they close the window and go back to TRF, their hard drive is getting mined for all of their financial data.

If I am 100% wrong...then welcome to TRF.
Or maybe it's just me being paranoid

You beat me to it....

Macs are way better than Windoze PCs in terms of security.

Yup, us Mac users typically don't have to worry about viruses or spyware! *knock on wood*
