 The reason why is that a Mac can not run visual basic worms like this 
 one was. The worm/virus was written in Visual Basic which requires 
 Windows and MS Outlook to propogate (but will infect computers that 
 run Windows and any e-mail software, as long as that computer can run 
 visual basic code).
 
 The bottom line is that the Mac is not vulnerable to this problem, 
 because it uses technology that is specific to Windows. >>


Ah. Thanks for the info. I'm Mac-dumb, so I had no idea why you'd said that.
