Linux is only secure until more people use it and the hackers think they can 
get enough of a kick out of their destructive behavior by writing viruses 
for Linux instead of Windows. Same for MacIntosh Operating System. It is 
already becomming more of a problem there because hackers see more use of 
that platform, so it is more fun for them.
