Re: Pull them off

Macs, and any *NIX machine in general is an overall bigger target because it's more likely to be connected to a broadband connection, and the stability and versatility that a *NIX system offers is much more powerful.

Rootkits, rather than viruses, have been our major problem and they are more or less universal across systems.

Even macs are included in the whole bot net problem, so don't try to play that card They are less but that's because less people out there use them.
