If u r a virus creator . dont tell me you dowan to create a virus to play with those computer which doesnt come with a single antivirus ? for 22 years ?

seriously, if i were to be so mean to create virus, i'd target the OS that's most easy to breach and has the largest # of userbase, preferably stupid users.......people who download every single cute thing without giving a thought of where is it from and what danger it could have.

why Windows?
1. easier to attack
2. easier to spread

and MAC is not without virus either. smile.gif just that it being Unix based, it's not as easy to attack it compared to Windows. then even if you attack it, how do you spread from there?
