spyware is not a function of the os. it's a function of the user. if the user allows the stuff on, if the user clicks on pop ups they shouldn't etc, the os will allow it. sure the os may have another level that prompts you to accept, but with most uneducated users, do you really think they can differentiate between an update to flash and malware?
doesn't matter how secure the os or the firewall or whatever, if you have stupid users manipulating it.

Most dominant system is the biggest target. Mac OS isn't bulletproof, but if there were more of em around, they would be a bigger target.
There is no denying an abrams tank could be safer, I mean, what if an a-10 warthog had a run at it with 30mm depleted uranium rounds.

Agreed, the virus writers go after the OS that is going to infect the most people the easiest.
If Linux had 90% of the OS market, it would be virus laden. Same thing with OSX. Its just not worth there time, for the little mayhem it would generate
Heres a virus writers thinking;
Linux virus- hmm neato I infected 3 people
Mac virus- thats cool my virus infected 8 people.
Windows virus- awesome I infected 100 people! Fuck YEAH
