Why would Linux not suffer from these virus infections, Germ? Don't you penguin-heads follow the instructions or something? :p

Snowman, when you get a good enough scanner that will stop this from infecting us, let me know. I could seriously use it.

I got one. It's called The Hood.

Real easy to use. :cool:

You place it over your head, and you can't see the virus, and it doesn't cause any problems. :p
