The reason why this is important is, because of guys like the one I mentioned above, there are probably a lot of Linux/Mac users out there who have this belief that, "Well, I can run whatever I want and don't have to worry about viruses/spyware because I'm not a Windows user",


That's equivalent to saying that because I wear a rubber I get to stick my gadget wherever I please. You might be safer, but you're not _that_ safe ...
