Well it's a virus that only targets windows so, yes, it is a windows virus.

How can apple be so arrogant to blame M$ for this, haven't they heard of anti virus software or checking what your suppliers are giving you.

Arrogant fools

They also blame themselves - more so if you hadnt noticed.

"As you might imagine, we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses and even more upset with ourselves for not catching it," Apple said in a release.

What would you call a virus that only affects machines running windows?

Of course apple is having a go at microsoft. The two companies have been battling it out for ages!

Apple are just up to their usual cheap 'n nasty tricks! But of course that comes naturally when you only have 3 or so percent of the global market share.
