I'm on a Mac, so I'm pretty sure I don't have any DNS poisoning or  
evil malware.  My hosts is intact:

Um, you might want to read the article.  If your upstream DNS cache is
poisoned, it doesn't matter what OS you're running.  Now, if you're
running your own secure cache that goes directly to the roots, then
you're right, you'd be immune to this specific attack.
