Turns out the Leopard firewall is off by default.
Even after upgrading from Tiger where I had it switched on, it is now off.
On the face of it, this would seem bad, especially for wifi users who might be exposed to dodgy Windows laptops in the same hotspot. Ironically, a Leopard sporting MacBook is probably safer when bootcamping into Vista.
Anyway, it’s now back on for my Macs and I’m curious to see what sort of fallout Apple will have to deal with over this.
