Any computer that can exchange data is venerable to viruses.

Most successful viruses running around today like MyDoom were executable attachments that people opened. Any machine that will execute the executable is venerable. It didn’t matter if all the ports were closed, firewalls were in place or anything else to do with the operating system. If the user chooses to run the attachment the machine has been compromised right then and there. MyDoom didn’t use active X, it didn’t use VB scripting, it used native code to the computer and a venerable user. Venerable users aren’t unique to PCs.
