Most of the web is run on Linux, IBM uses Linux, Microsoft uses Linux, Largo, FL uses Linux for their email system and have yet to get a virus. Yes, Linux can be hacked, but, it is extremely rare because of two reasons, 1) it is a small market and (more importantly) 2) it is difficult to get past the built in security features. I have yet to hear of a Linux system getting hacked, it might have happened, but in all the research I do on Linux, I haven't found it.
