Duh
Uhmm, yes, that's because the attack is aimed FOR a Windows box. Of course a Mac will "see" the network traffic, but since the hackers currently only TARTGET Windows, only Windows responds. If the attack was looking for specific, known Mac holes, with a Mac binary virus ready to be uploaded, then Windows will also "see" the attack, but not respond to it. Duh. You are not too smart, are you?

Just proves my point more how clueless Mac fanbois really are.

"It's because Macs really, truly *are* orders of magnitude more secure than Windows."

Is this the info you have been getting from the www.macs_are_the_bestest.com websites? You really need to spend some more time on non-Mac fanboi sites.
