The Commodore 128 that I use to access the web (yes, I have
Slakware Linux and Windows 2000 boxes, but the C128 is more
fun and boots in seconds) also does not have any adware/spyware
or antivirus software installed. In fact, I see one common
factor to all of these viruses: Microsoft operating systems...



The big player is targetted...why target .0001% (probably less) of the
online population?

Do you actually believe that a virus can't be coded for a C 128?
