"The virus is spread when computer users are tricked into visiting a compromised website, which then loads a malicious executable file (.exe) onto the user's computer."

"On Tuesday, Apple finally released a Java patch for its newest operating systems, nearly two months after the Java problem was fixed for Windows, Linux and Unix, reported the Naked Security blog run by the U.K.-based security software company Sophos."

I'll stick with Linux thanks! All the security and none of the price.
