Storm is a Windows thing -
ZDnet's 'tech articles' are hardly neutral are they? This article is built around a key assertion :

"Clicking on the link downloads malicious software onto the victim's computer"

This is a deliberate, carefully crafted lie. It's purpose appears to be to make ALL computer users think they are at risk when, in fact, it only MICROFT WINDOWS users who are in danger. Apple users are not in danger. Linux users are not in danger. Unix users are not in danger. MICROSFT WINDOWS users are at risk, as per usual, all on their own.

Why is ZDnet so obviously biased towards Microsoft?

PS : From Wiki (and conformed by any other source you care to name)

The Storm Worm (dubbed so by the Finnish company F-Secure) is a backdoor[1][2] Trojan horse that affects computers using Microsoft operating systems,[3][4][5] discovered on January 17, 2007.[3]
