Which is more virus prone: Apple Computers or Microsoft Computers?

[speederman]

By Microsoft Computers I mean computers that use Windows.

[MAK k]

obviously microsoft only windows. windows supports .exe files and virus are running on .exe files so microsoft computers are more risky

[bxicefire]

there are much more viruses, spy-ware adware, malware and all types of malicious coded software out in the net specifically targeting Microsoft windows and even linux computers. Apples are less vulnerable and prone to these viruses, but all that can be fixed with some antivirus on a windows based computer.

Apple or MAC computers use a system entirely different from windows...Windows utilizes the use of a "Registry" which is something like a big log book which contains all the addresses of each file and which program uses them.MAC on the other hand uses multiple files instead so even if a virus deletes a file, the system will still function.Windows is more prone because once it's security is breached, one flick at the registry and it's all gone. Also, there are hundreds of thousands or millions of viruses for windows and only a few known for apple computers...

Microsoft, without question.

Microsoft. Hackers don't really work on viruses and hacks for Macs

[noh moh muffahns]

Yeah I've always heard that PC's (comps running Windows) have 99% of viruses directed at em. I use Vista and at the moment am researching on how to keep it safe, there are ways. Both have their flaws but I've always heard that Mac's are safer...

[Mr Random Person]

Microsoft computers without a doubt. There are no known viruses for mac so Apple computers are completely safe.R
