Complacency/ignorance of the potential for malicous intent has been one of the prime factors in the current horrendous state of alot of windows systems out there. Yes in an ideal world you should be able to click on anything, do online banking etc without worrying about it - but in that same world you would be able to put your PIN number into an ATM without worrying that the ATM has been tampered with. Unfortunately we do not live in that world!
Also correct me if I'm wrong but I get the vibe from the article that you are implying that no fraudsters or other Bad Guys will _want_ to write malware for OSX because it has a nice cuddly user experience?
Not really sure I follow that one...
Just my 2p
