Hey guys!
This is an Offtopic question, really, but I wanted to ask people I know and
people who are developers - what are the reasons there are (almost) no
viruses on Linux?
Technically I could be wrong, but ... Lots of viruses come via mail.
On Linux it means executing binary files from mail clients. Well,
1) mail clients on Linux don't do that
2) the executable attribute of a file is lost when you send it anyway.
