Not trying to start a flame-fest here, but the correct plural form of virus is viruses. I know that as GNU/Linux users this viruses are

True. I originally typed the sentence as "I know that as GNU/Linux users this is ...." Then I realized that the pronoun reference of "this" was "flame-fest" (the subject of the previous sentence). In my haste to correct it to the less ambiguous viruses, I forgot to change "this" to "these." Good catch.
Of course, I also spelled grammar as grammer in the original subject (I fixed it in this reply). But spelling is a different topic altogether.
