Strange people. Serious problems with their self-esteem, my internal psychologist thinks. People defining their egos over their computer's OS - what do you expect...

Absolutely true. Those who don't have a problem (or just claim that) are asking for real problems. There's nothing about Linux that makes it immune from social engineering, Java based, Flash based or HTML based attacks. And no computer can defend itself against its own user. These people are their own virus.
Notice you don't hear from the "Apple is safe" crowd much any more. IOS is very close to Linux in its operation.
