This is obviously not true. I have been /trying/ to get several
different viruses to run on my Linux test box using Windows emulation
and it just will not happen. There /have/ been viruses written for
Linux but they are non consequential oddities not found in the wild. In
fact, many other operating systems are very secure. It is for the most
part /only/ Microsoft products that are susceptible.
Otherwise why would Microsoft have moved their web sites that were
targeted by the Blaster worm to Linux servers when, to Microsoft, Linux
is the Anti-Christ?
