I know I'm far from alone in saying this has been coming. Malware has evolved from vandalism and bragging to become a weapon used by for-profit-criminals and militaries. At that point, it's no longer a question of pure numbers. Instead, it's about attack strategy. What matters is your target. If your target is on Mac or Linux (or VMS or OS/390 or whatever), that's what you attack. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
