Oh, what a ridiculously misleading title.
Like hell Macs are "no safer", they talk about all these files that users on Macs open, which don't harm the Mac, and infect a Windows PC.
The only example they can give is a Firefox plugin that supposedly works on a Mac, and yet their links don't actually say anything more about it: they link to the Wikipedia page defining plugins (what?) and a vague article on botnets that doesn't even mention the Mac. I'm not saying the Mac plugin doesn't exist, but the least they could have done is dug up an article that actually specifies how the Mac was affected.
