Dose this affect Macs, I don't think so. If it doesn't then there is one more reason to use a Mac.

I'm not a mac user so i couldn't tell you if it does or not pinklet, but this does effect all users submitting freebies and where they host them.

The Xupiter toolbar can't be installed on Mac OS 9 or OS X, but it will cause a freeze or delay while the spyware is trying to operate and the various pop-unders and cookies do their dirty work. I'm glad the admins caught this, but I wonder if that wrestling guy switched to the spyware server AFTER the admins had approved his freeware item on a legit server. If so, that is very devious behavior.

Everyone should ditch IE, and get Netscape or something. IE is the most common browser, and is the most targeted. You also get popup control, etc with other browsers

Exactly, IE is the most common browser and rather then expect everyone to ditch it and go to netscape its best to avoid sites that have the plugin all together, this is the lesser of the two evils. Not to mention, some people like myself loth netscape, some stuff made for it for auto installs is more intrusive then this plugin, not to mention of you ever wanna get rid of netscape, its best you just redo your system then try uninstalling it because 1/2 the time it fubars your registery (speaking from personal experience with netscape).
