I meant exactly what I wrote.
I run Linux. I have never been infected by any Trojan malware.
The vast majority of malware out there is targeted towards the ‘doze OS, thus the impetus for this thread. This one is geared towards Windows 10, and is so noted.
My Linux machines are not at risk from this latest version of Trojan.
Others, directly targeting Linux, are not the point of the article referenced.
But I gather you are more interested in sneering at Linux than helping spread the word to vulnerable users of this latest security threat.
Right, well, then bash away.
I’ll just let you go on then while those who need this information come across it and are made aware of the possible implications.
I hear there are some american ‘football’ games being broadcast on the telly. You might wish to look into that while you are attempting to deflect from the point of this thread.
Happy Thanksgiving, and do try to ease off on the Amber Nectar now, right?
Others, directly targeting Linux, are not the point of the article referenced.
"Trojan" is a type or class of malware, not the name of this one specifically (it was capitalized in my original post by auto correct). There are many "trojan" malware programs out there specific to Linux and your machines are vulnerable to them.
If you don't run Windows then your machines are not vulnerable to this particular version, so this thread shouldn't have concerned you at all, and nothing you posted is going to be useful at all to anyone who is. Trojan infection is a result of poor security awareness on the part of the user, and changing operating systems will not fix that. I'm not here to bash Linux, you showed up to bash Windows. No operating system is perfect, and they're all vulnerable to this kind of attack. I understand you like Linux, but coming here to tell everyone about it while omitting that one fact that would have been relevant to the topic at hand doesn't prove how much smarter you are than Windows users.
