[WelMac] Mac Viruses... or not? $500 if you have any..

[Jo 'Mangee' Booth]

I know it's a often discussed topic, and we don't have any.. eg  
Airlab (who I work for) has been using Apple computers for nigh on 27  
years w/o viruses...  but I was listening to my 4.8 days of un- 
listened-to PodCasts via my newly aquired Bluetooth headset while  
lying in bed, when I heard about Will Shipleys $500 offer to anyone  
who finds a Mac Virus...
I did get out of bed and go 5m to the computer room to email ya'll...

Heh:
"Mikko Hyppönen, director of antivirus research at F-Secure, said  
that viruses targeting the Macintosh system virtually disappeared in  
the late 1980s.
"Things have been really quiet on Macintosh-front, virus-wise. Back  
in the late 1980s, viruses used to be a much bigger problem on Macs  
than on PCs. We here at F-Secure used to have an antivirus product  
for Mac but discontinued it after the macro viruses died out," said  
Hyppönen."

"No virus. Ever. Simple.

Repeat after me. NO VIRUS. Got it? "

Dunno if he's managed to find one yet... have you? Do you even run an  
Anti-Virus?
