No. Scully has been making protected-mode operating system noises
(see his interview in Computer Currents last spring) but nothing solid yet.
A major redesign of the operating system will be required. But it can
probably be made transparent to existing Mac applications. And it will
have to be done eventually, now that the competition (OS/2) has protected
mode operation. The virus problem isn't going to go away.
