Once upon a time nobody wrote virii for Linux. The latest Firefox patches included securing things that could get hit under Linux. Apple now ships new computers with antivirus. Remember, the earliest virii were Unix ones, Unix being the only operating system with reasonable installs and publically available documentation back then. Look up the history of attacks against BIND if you want to find out more.
