Hi, an italian newspaper has published an article about security risks and virus related issues on mac osx and obviously linux is cited. http://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2012/04/12/sicuri-frottole/
In the article the author states: "[...] First myth: There are no viruses for Mac. In the mythology of fans, the "Big Apple" operating system would be so solid that it can not be broken. False: Any operating system is vulnerable to viruses. Linux users are so well aware about that they use security software. [...]" Another quote: "[...] the only Mac immune to viruses, ironically, are those who have installed Microsoft software such as Word and Excel. [...]" regards -raffaele -- *L'unica speranza di catarsi, ammesso che ne esista una, resta affidata all'istinto di ribellione, alla rivolta non isterilita in progetti, alla protesta violenta e viscerale. (V. Evangelisti) *
