linux is not affected because of it’s key feature source code. As source code is given we can modify each and everything as we want which is not known to virus source.

Linux is not affected by its hierarchical file system.
To enter in any directory some permissions. Even if virus reach into one directory its very hard to reach another same level directories and its nearly impossible to reach to root directory(/)(ofcourse without root privilege).

The main reason for Linux not getting affected by virus is that no process can continue to exist in computer’s memory (the computer running Linux)when it terminates. The concept of “Terminate and Stay Resident” (TSR) is there in Windows, but not in Linux. When any process terminates on its own, it should leave the memory and that memory must be recalled by the OS. Windows has loose ends at that point. But, I am searching why.
