Hello Katie.  Welcome.

It's so simple.  Companies can avoid attacks by avoiding Microsoft products.

My small company runs eComStation and OS/2 (non-Windows Operating Systems).
None of the viruses, Melissa, BubbleBoy, Code Red, Code Red II, Nimda affect us
in any way.  We have no anti-virus software installed - we don't need any.

Running non-Microsoft software is to computer viruses as fidelity is to STD's
(Sexually Transmitted Diseases)  - NO PROBLEMS!
