"No Vruses attack every OSX Mac ever made, 20,000,000 not infected!"

Why do these threads always degenerate into Mac versus PC quibbling.....who gives a crap. If you want virus proof tech buy WebTV, I spend days repairing computers for friends that click on every popup and email......I have a Windows 2000 system running Firefox, ZA and AVG that has never been infected in 4 constant years of use.....to each their own.

I am a very careful person (but I can't speak for my wife when I'm not home and she's got the pooter) but I keep finding viruses and trojans in Java. I finally just installed the program and deleted the entire Sun folder until I can find out what's causing the vulnerability. Any ideas?

BTW, my wife downloads a lot of these "cute" games which I'm guessing are java-based. I'm sure this is the culprit but wanted to make sure that there are no other factors involved here.
