Most businesses and agencies run on Windows right? It makes more sense to hit large targets than go after random individuals. Still, it's weird how the advertising tagline "Macs don't get viruses" has stuck around all this time. I've heard it from so many different people and I don't even bother trying to correct them anymore. --- "We know things can move faster than the speed of light because liberal tears are on the ground before something offensive even happens" - Coffeebeanz <cite>Ultima Dragon posted [p:934428985] in Who honest...
