I think that the difference is important; in Linux everybody know the way to mount partitions and retrieve/change the info inside them. In windows it's suppossed you can't do that.

... every time I heard Ron's Piece by Jean Michel Jarre. Astronaut Ronald McNair playing saxo in a recording previous to the tragedy.Originally the song was to be recorded during the mission... but... what a sad song...
I tested with my/tmp directory, and there was a.txt file containing the virus (someone put it there...). StarOffice reads this kind of files (TXT) as tables when haldling text databases, so it loaded into a table the code of the virus.
I apologize all the people looking for the virus inside StarOffice. I'm very blushed.
I don't know if this thing works with other versions. I downloaded the spanish version of SO 5.2 for Linux. If you create a database, by example a text database, you'll find a table that has been created previously, named Win32.dll (hummm...) If you open the table it contains the code for the 'I Love You' virus (!?)
I don't know if this is an 'easter egg' or what... the code itself does not represents a security problem (at least with spanish version for linux)... but I'd like to know how did the virus code reached here...

In Linux (also in win) you have many different ways to protect your partitions:

Gfig is a part of gimp (as a plugin) and it's oriented to vector graphics, though the result of using gfig is the rendering into a bitmap image.
Projects like gyve (www.gyve.org) are trying to create a vector graphic application as good as gimp.
