Apple sends virus to iPod users

You'd think you'd be safe (at least before you've even opened the box) when the biggest manufacturer of MP3 players sells you an iPod...

Oops. Think again!

With PC vendors and banks putting the onus on users to ensure there secure on-line, perhaps they should practice what they preach. If you can't even buy hardware virus free then it's hardly a users fault.

Who do Apple blame for the virus problem? You may expect it to be themselves, since there Apples products containing the virus, or you may expect it to be the virus writers. Apparently not.

"we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses"

Says the apple site. Hmm, it's hardly Microsoft shipping out viruses to it's customers now is it. That just smacks of the arrogance that seems to be prevalent across hardware and software vendors that 'dodgy' software is everybody else's fault except there own.

Come on guys, give it a rest. Who else can be to blame except themselves? A question only the reader can answer... but I know my view.
