[QUOTE="_Claymore_, post: 1225448, member: 199652"] Hey all, I'm a networking student and I'm getting into my security classes now, which naturally are all about Windows. So, I'm genuinely interested in the reason why there are no viruses for the Mac? Is it because there are more Windows users, or that Windows is easier to exploit? Or is it because of excellent construction of the Mac OS? I don't expect a huge long answer or anything here, but could someone maybe point me to an article or fountain of information somewhere on this topic that has technical explanations for it? Thanks!
