Mac zealots will happily point out to you that it is not in fact a virus, it is a trojan, and that you have to be "stupid enough to install it". I swear some of them are stuck in the late 90's.
Personally I'd love for OSX to get slammed by a worm just to stem the flow of anal retentiveness coming out of Mac forums regarding malware. And yes, I own a Mac and have done for many years. I think a few outbreaks would do the platform good.

Old new is old. People installing bad things is old news plus some people never learn. Funny thing is sophos hand out their mac av for free, because most people tend to never even consider that while their mac may be unable to catch windows viruses it is in fact able to transmit them

Yea, it's not a big deal really. Just flame bait for saddos that have a problem with people being happy with their macs.
Can't really understand the logic in wishing for more mac attacks though. Having to bloat out the operating system with anti-viral code isn't really going to benefit the platform much is it?
