MacKeeper Leaks 13 Million Mac Owners’ Data →

Thomas Fox-Brewster:

Anti-virus provider MacKeeper is known for pushing the message Apple Mac owners need protection. It needed some extra protection of its own today, after a white hat hacker discovered a database containing 13 million customer records was accessible by just visiting a selection of IP addresses, no username or password required.

Do not install this crap. Ever. And delete it if already installed. It does not help in any meaningful way, and is harmful in many others.
