It's a useless point. Well, in defense to the Sophos thing, what else
are they going to say? Backwards compatibility is a bitch?
The point is, don't going throwing around the term "immune", that's not
what it means. I don't need Windows users thinking they are immune.

Malware finds a way. I realized this when a honeypot I had set up had
ended up with a BIOS-erasing file infector on an open share. A virus
that never should have been able to make it between hosts. It had
attached itself to a copy of Nimda.
