Anything that is popular is vulnerable.

Virus writers get more bang for their time disrupting big numbers of WIN users than they would annoying relatively few mac users. It is return on investment.

Oh, okay. It's because Windows is popular. I see.

It's got nothing to do with the "features" of Windows, which make it easier for idiots to use it, which also make Windows easier to exploit.

Got it.
