TidBITS#818/27-Feb-06
=====================

  Are the recent Mac OS X security vulnerabilities the work
  of genius crackers or mostly just shortcomings in Mac OS X's
  association of applications and documents? Geoff Duncan looks
  at the recent Safari exploit and Matt Neuburg explains how we've
  ended up in this situation. Also in this issue, Adam reviews
  iPhoto 6 in detail, checks in with the latest news from former
  Macintosh evangelist Guy Kawasaki, and looks briefly at Apple's
  announcement of the one-billionth song sold via iTunes.
