Re: [PLUG] OSS desktop (windows) anti-virus?


How much is money spent on developing Mozilla or The GIMP? They run under multiple platforms, even ones with smaller user bases. I prefer programs that run on both Linux and Windows over programs that only run under one or the other. It comes down to philosphy and business, not necessarily money.
