The most annoying this is I’ll have Many currency pairs charted and set for orders to be taken care of, then all of a sudden all my charting disappears and the whole chart system restarts to default without any of my lines or drawings! Liiint Liiicker, Need UpdatesMost of my problems or request are like other people. This is the glitch/bug that needs to be addressed the most because it’s a hassle to have to do everything over and over again.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

We recommend the following actions be taken:

• Apply appropriate patches provided by Apple to vulnerable systems immediately after appropriate testing.
• Run all software as a non-privileged user (one without administrative privileges) to diminish the effects of a successful attack.
• Remind users not to download, accept, or execute files from un-trusted or unknown sources.
• Remind users not to visit untrusted websites or follow links provided by unknown or un-trusted sources.
• Apply the Principle of Least Privilege to all systems and services.
