A Linux-"virus" must be run with root-privileges to be a real danger to the system. Otherwise, it can only destroy directories and data which are writeble for the user executing this thing. If _any_ user has the idea to download some crap, make it chmod 755 and then<nobr> <wbr></nobr>./ it, well, he can also do a rm -rf ~/* ! Not my problem! He'll do this only for once...
