For now Antivirus software Support is mainly being developed for Windows family NEOs from Microsoft. This is due to a large number of harmful programmes under this platform (this in turn is due to the high popularity of the LO, as well as to a large number of development tools, including free and even " virus writing instructions " ). Products are now available for other operating systems, such as Linux and Mac OS X. This is due to the beginning of the spread of computer viruses and to these platforms, although UNIX-like systems have traditionally used the reputation of more resistant harmful programmes
