Apple-warning.com POP-UP Scam is displayed on a rogue page –Apple-warning.com. It says that the visitor’s device is infected with viruses and encourages them to download and install some potentially unwanted application (PUA) that supposed to remove detected threats. Typically, users do not visit this type of pages with purposes. They end up to this site as a redirect when visiting any unprotected site or when some potentially unwanted app already installed on their device.
The text in the Apple-warning.com POP-UP Scam page states that the user’s iPhone and its battery are infected and damaged by three viruses. It encourages removing these viruses soon or, otherwise they will cause even more damage. It recommends an application called Super BlockerAd to fix the issues arisen.

More often than not they feed users with ads and/or collect various data. They display coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, and/or other types of ads.

Ack! Is it that time of year already?? Where you have to elbow old ladies to get near the checkout at the local gift emporium??
Well, no not quite. As I write this it's still October, but the shops around here have had their Christmas stuff for sale for about 6 months now so Christmas must actually be getting a little closer.
I was watching the previous version of this screen saver, and altho I still love to watch it, I thought that maybe the graphics could do with a polish. It looked great when I first made it way back when, but not quite as good now. So before I started porting it to work on the Mac, I decided to update the graphics. I've remade Santa, the Elf, the Sleigh and all the houses have been replaced. I basically left the Reindeer alone because I thought they looked pretty cool already. So now I think the whole thing looks a lot niftier than before, but the general feel is the same, which I liked.
So for those of you unfamiliar with it, this screen saver was first released back in (I think from memory) the year 2000. Back then, the graphics were crap, altho at the time I liked it. Then I remade it a few years ago (2002?) from scratch and the whole thing was so much better. So this is the 3rd time I've done a major sort of update, an it's the first time it's been available under both Windows and Mac OS X so even more people can enjoy the Christmas spirit!
The elf still does all the work throwing the presents down the chimneys. He really needs to join a union. And there's no over 50 Christmas tunes as background music. In general, this is one of my favourite, so I hope you all get a kick out of it.
As always, if you spot any bugs let me know.
Merry Christmas and enjoy!
