Most hackers intent on sending malware and viruses are first and foremost familiar with the loopholes of windows operating systems. Outlook mail is also widely targeted.

But there are still "security" issues regarding your personal info any time you provide it on line.
If I knew how, I steal some!

You have to use your credit card if you want to get any applications for your ipad, even free ones. When I signed up for itunes they wanted my credit card info, and a couple weeks after that, I got a call from my credit card company. Since the purchase was a none dog related item they were suspicious! Anyway, it was a relatively small purchase, less than a hundred dollars, and the credit card people said they usually start small and if it passes they get bigger and bigger. I can't remember the actual name of the company it was charged to, but I googled it and lots of people have been charged by them. Some say apple and itunes knows about it and aren't doing anything. You can google itunes and fraud and get some information, but I still can't find the name of the company listed on my credit card. She did warn me to check my statements.
