The truth is, there's a fringe element of extraordinarily loyal Mac users who refuse to acknowledge that trouble may be on the horizon, despite mounting evidence to the contrary.
Macs are safer to use because of the lower number of reported bugs, but that does not make them more secure. It's an important distinction.
don't take a chance ,especially with online banking.
If you live in a safe area you still lock up when you
go out.
hope this helps.

Nope. The browser is safe, and the OS is pretty secure...
