[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 860768, member: 8287"] NO Windows virus can affect OSX in any way, shape of form. BUT, if you say network copy an infected file to your Mac running OSX, the file is still there and infected and if you pass that file on to a friend or a Windows machine then you are passing on the Virus and it can get infected unless it has a good and updated AntiVirus installed. I repeat, OSX can in NO WAY be affected by any Windows Virus. But you can pass it on, but it's not OSX passing it on, it's you the user. [/QUOTE]
