Thus, the workaround for Windows users is very simple: just use a different web browser (Firefox, Opera etc.). On the Mac side, the situation is a tad more serious.
Those browsers aren't available for the Mac? I wonder what I'm actually using... it says Opera at the top

The article says that doesn't matter though - if your default RSS handler is Safari (whether you browse with it or not) you're at risk, apparently.

My Default RSS feed reader is set to FF so I suppose that means I can ignore the article

The work-round on Leopard seems simple enough. Just use the RCDefaultApp prefs pane and divert the relevant URLs. I already had 'feed' set to use Mail. I set the 'feeds' and 'feedsearch' urls to <disable>.
