Sunspot;

Interesting attempt at spin. In actual fact, the reason this system is in place has nothing to do with the resiliency of any of the operating systems mentioned. The simple fact is that there are individuals who write viruses targeted at specific platforms. Please do not even attempt to tell me that no viruses have been written that target unix operating systems....

The meaning of the article is obvious: Microsoft is doing everything that it can to protect it's customers. Your attempt to spin this article into something negative is something that I previously would have thought as below even you. Obviously I was wrong.

BTW, for the record, that article has been in the knowledge base since February 3, 1992.
