So by running Linux, you’re safe from infection by Trojan malware?

Not a one ever infected any of the machines I did and do control, since about 1997 or so. The few times a security flaw was discovered the ‘nix coders released a patch amazingly quickly and nipped it in the bud.

I am happy to say that I have never had an infection of any sort while running Linux on any of these machines. I also never run any other OS while working online and have never been compromised to date.
