Although I'm sure you posted this with the best intentions, I think  
this list is not the place for this kind of discussion (others may  
disagree). Second, I really wonder where all this crap with OSX viri,  
worms etc. suddenly comes from. OSX never was inherently bullet proof  
or magically secure from any threat. All this discussions during the  
last weeks boil down to one thing: Any OS is only as secure as its  
user makes it.
