In this era of virus d'jour, it's most certainly not a silly question
- especially in light of the intense media coverage each succeeding
bug has received.
The short answer is No.
Yes, there are some Mac-only viruses, but only a dozen or so have
been identified during the past 4 or 5 years. All are easily
detectable and can be neutralized by any of the current Virus
prevention programs.
The answer to the question 'Why?' is way too long for this list and
probably of little or no interest to the PC users who make up the
bulk of its subscribers.
If you're a Mac person and would like to know more, please contact me
directly and I'll be happy to share some interesting responses posted
to another list that recently posed the same question.
Thanks,
