Guest LilBambi Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Hope no one was depending on a screensaver to protect them.It gets even worse than that in the subsequent messages about this.Apparently it is so easy even a 3 year old figured it out. LOL!I am sure they will have a patch out on this one very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicDragon Posted July 8, 2003 Author Share Posted July 8, 2003 I am sure they will have a patch out on this one very soon.Yea. I don't have a mac here so i don't know if it even really works... but if i does, i'm sure apple with put a patch out. On a side note: Does it go away if you shutdown the computer and start it up again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
