I understand that Sony bundled "malware" (I believe this term may have
been used subjectively) into some of their music CD's which errantly may
install what could be viewed as a "root kit" to Windows machines. I'm
wondering if anyone know if such a scheme also exists in the Mac _OSX_
platform, does anyone know?
