Hi, I really dont understand the attitude of attack when somebody posts
something like this. Not everybody is competant in using Ubuntu, and not
everybody understands the risks involved especially considering for
years its been pushed as a safe OS. All i have done is post this to the
group, I dont appreciate this attitude. It doesnt give Ubuntu a good
light when people see this.

Unless you NEVER use the OFFICIAL REPO and are totally careless with
your system then there's a VERY high chance you could infect your
system with ANY virus.
I like the way he also goes on about it must mean that Linux must
becoming a popular OS. and that Window$ gets hacked too. If hacking
was THAT bad, Window$ would be no more. But it's STILL here, but do
you notice there are virtually NO hacks reported or otherwise on Win95
or higher up to 200 and probably dying out on the XP as there's Vista,
7 and 8 to attack now.
