Macs need to patch too!
Our regular readers know this, but on Patch Tuesday aka Black Tuesday we get a bit wider audience and hence it's worth repeating it even more:
Do not forget to also patch your Macs!
E.g. a Trojan was recently discoverd that targets Macs with unpatched java flaws. See the Intego writeup.
Not only that, Microsoft Office, Adobe Flash, Shockwave, Reader and/or Acrobat all need to get updated too.
