Hi there, I just read about how male cardinals are protective of their breeding territory and will attack their own reflection where they may see it, so it makes sense he would be attacking "the window." If it's at all possible to place something solid up against that window where he reaches his view of himself, (something that would eliminate the glare) that would probably solve your problem.

The male cardinal likely sees its reflection in the windows and is perceiving it as a territorial threat, prompting the aggressive behavior. To deter this, you can try placing decals or stickers on the outside of the windows to break up the reflection and make it less threatening to the bird. Alternatively, temporarily covering the windows with material like a sheer curtain can also help mitigate the behavior.

Is a dead male cardinal on our deck an omen of anything?

Not usually. Cardinals, like a lot of birds that feed close to buildings, will on occasion fly into windows and die. I would not see omens in it unless the cardinal is a personal totem of yours or someone in the house. Not all naturally occurring phenomenon are to be interpreted as omens. Finding a dead male cardinal on your deck, while upsetting is one such occurrence. Unless the cardinal is of significance to you personally or to a member of your household, I would chalk this one up to the vagaries of nature. If cardinal is a personal totem or animal guide, then spend a bit of time meditating on the meaning of the sighting. Your answer will come.

Are UNIX and Linux more virus prone than Windows?

This question cannot be answered with a simple yes or no. A windows system is more likely to be attacked simply because there are more of them. In addition, windows users may not patch their systems as often as they should. As a result, they "seem" to be more prone to viruses. If a virus writer knows that the chances of successfully attacking a windows systems are better, then they will try to target the virus to that system. A windows virus generally will not affect a different operating system.
