  1. Re:Conspiracy theory on Another Windows Macro Virus Wreaks Havoc · · Score: 1

    Of course, because we know that one of the best-known features of all Unix systems is their wide range of tools for writing viruses, er, worms, in macro languages for a applications that don't run on Unix. Next you'll be suggesting that a "*nix fan" would spend enough time on a Windows box to develop a virus. Or maybe use WINE or Wabi or something similar. Actually, I think this is a meta-anti-virus. Some OSes are more resistant to infection to others, but MS Office is a petri dish for these things, so if this thing is removing/breaking Office, it's like an autoclave.
