There is a larger collection of software for POSIX compliant systems than there ever has been, or will be for windows platforms.
As for viruses, there are already various virii out that will affect linux systems. However, the architecture of the operating system makes it very hard for them to spread without targetted infection via social engineering.
The main reason not to use linux is that it is sucky. Much better to use a BSD (read: real unix)
