I’m sorry, but my definition of virus does not include a program that you intentionally download that does something bad to your computer.

Back when I was exclusively Windows my kids would get infected all the time by just visiting web sites. Hasn’t happened once in the three years since we have Macs. A relative just gave us his old PC (funny, he bought a Mac) for my son to use to play games and within a month he had a virus (yes, we had anti-virus installed). No download did him in, just a visit to a “cheat code” web site.

THAT’S what you get with Windows.
