They really don't get viruses! Something to do with how the operating system is written - Unix based? My husband is a programmer - He said windows has a bunch of "back doors" for hackers to go through and wreak havoc. Mac's OS is locked down tight - no "back doors" = no viruses. He's the Mac genius, not me.

That's not true. The reason Mac doesn't have that many viruses (there are some) is because it's not that popular system. The more popular an OS or a browser gets, the more people try to code viruses for it.

Mac isn't really any more safer than Windows is, but nobody bothers to attack it. Yet.
