I Wasn't Built on a Mac, Honest!

Sorry, I'm going so off-topic here.

But what would happen if you did the same for Windows fparedesg?

That is my point, I'm not knocking Windows - I'm just saying I've never had a virus problem with OSX. Windows people seem to be jumping for joy when they hear about a problem with Apple. Why is that? If you don't like Apple send your phone to me please.

You would get a lot more results. I am not supporting Windows, in fact, I hate Windows. I prefer OS X by far. My favorite OS has to be Linux, that's the one I use the most, which is also "virus free", but that's not the point here, is it?

You are saying that you aren't bashing Windows, but with that comment, looks like you're contradicting yourself. What I'm trying to prove here is that there are viruses for OS X, opposed to what you previously stated.

aren't you the guy that kept caps lock on in the "perfect storm 1.0" thread? Most people would notice 3 seconds into typing a response that they're typing all in caps and would go back to retype the response or take off caps lock.

Just saying.

@ iGuy

I love apple... I am a die hard fan!

that is why when I was reading about the iWork '09 Trojan I was very disgruntled.

It is a good sign though that Macintosh products are getting enough attention from hackers now. It shows that more Macs are being used.
