    You are allowed to link to stuff with swear words? Thought this was family friendly and against the TOS?

    Just because you havent had it, dosnt mean you cant get them. Viruses can be written for any and all operating systems, and you dont always see them.

    I hear people yapping away about how their macs dont needs AV Software..... lol..... Then they complain because they got a virus a few weeks later

    The truth is no one cares about Linux. When people make viruses, they are trying to get information and take down systems .. and they will be disappointed when their malicious code took down 2 computers.

    Any OS will get viruses when they matter. Have Linux grow to Windows proportions, then watch as Windows is virus free while everyone complains about Linux. Same for Apple.

    Also, here is a tool that will fix it if you have it - Removal Tool from Symantec

    We did have advance notice .. 2 years ago, the hole was found and exloited, but people are dumb and don't update their systems so this thing that should have been done and a non-issue is a threat now because people don't use patch-sense.
