Perhaps we should create a massive [Chinese] spam campaign that installs a bot-net to infect with http://sourceforge.net/projects/statix/ and track Linux desktops?

I've read of a few examples of malware written for MacOS.  Is there any malware out there that targets linux boxes?   If so, what kind of a threat is it to people who run linux at home?

Thanks

Yes, 

Malware exists that targets linux indirectly (as in browser and Adobe based) and directly.

Check out the online registry:  http://www.team-cymru.org/Services/MHR/
