I apt-getted a copy of ClamAV, and after siccing it at my spam-and-other-things-I-don’t-want-to-read collection, I yanked out a half-dozen unique, only Windows-compatible, viruses. I found plenty by looking through my staggering collection of bogofilter sorted mail. While I have friends that collect viruses, I didn’t need to bother them. The GNU/Linux folks really should improve this glaring discrepancy. It doesn’t happen automatically as it does with Windows. Linux just isn’t user-friendly when it comes to viruses. I mean really, shouldn’t Linux users be in on the fun as well? Well… thanks to the folks running the Wine project, Linux users can “catch the virus bug” too - sort of. It just isn’t fair that Windows users get all the viruses. ![]()
