Dave,

For IP if you like.

To put this discussion in some perspective, I recently talked to the  
CTO of a well known AV company.  I asked him how many virus/malware  
he was aware of by platform type.  He told me:

Win32   200,000
MacOS         4
Linux       300
Symbian     341
FreeBSD       0

This is different from the number of known vulnerabilities, but still  
interesting.

Bob
