Thanks, Steve.  I thought this was likely the case.

I haven't been following this thread so apologies if this has already been
said:

Linux is affected by viruses. If you have heard that isn't true, you aren't
getting good information. If you need proof, Google "viruses targeting
linux" and you can answer your own question.

No operating system is immune. They all have vulnerabilities. Windows has
far more numerous installations than any other OS and the most tempting
targets operate under Windows. So most exploits are targeted towards
Windows.

In addition, browsers, program scripts, virtually any program can provide an
entry point for malware.

That's a copout. Back to my original question. Why isn't Linux effected by

viruses?
