  Apple slow to warn users as vulnerability to hackers rises
Time: 13:03 EST/18:03 GMT | News Source: Los Angeles Times | Posted By: Erick Cordero

Enthusiastic Macintosh owners brag that the digital plagues of worms, viruses and trojans so common to Microsoft's Windows operating system rarely visit their sleek machines. It may be, though, that Apple doesn't fall too far from the PC. Three times this month, Apple Computer has been accused of failing to warn Mac owners of serious flaws in their software. In the most recent instance, users of Apple's OS X operating system could have data deleted or stolen if they follow an e-mail link to Web sites built by hackers. At the sites, PCs can be compromised by malicious code.
