And if you're moronic enough to blindly run random programs sent to you in email, then you deserve to have the worm on your PC.

And if you're moronic enough to blindly run random programs sent to you in email, then you deserve to have the worm on your PC . A lot of computer users are rather moronic and WILL click on things they don't understand . Even most cautious users will click on a so-called patch in order to save their computers thinking they are doing the right thing . Very few ask for help or advise until its too late

The fact that something like this can spread so easily is a testament to the large amount of nieve, moronic or uninformed Windows users around the world.

Don't just target windows users. there are Linux and Mac users that do it too

The only way a Mac user can spread a virus is to forward an infected email on to a PC user who then opens it and infects their system with it. The Mac user in question won't have actually been infected with the malware that was in the email which means that their system wasn't actually infected which is the complete opposite of Windows.
