Apple ? Not a chance. BTW, its the "heard from... some sources" will not convince anyone. An actual link to the report / article would be the ultimate surprise.

No such thing mate.

Depends on where you got that Itune from.

If you got if from Apple's site, no way, no virus, no spyware.

If you got that Itune thing from those one-eye-Jack operation, hey, no one can guarantee anything. smile.gif

AFAIK, there've been some versions of iTunes 8 which've been hijacked with spyware. AFAIK, all of *those* links have been cleared out already but the best is to download and install from Apple.com (Official website).
