Decent sized adverts in the dead tree press are very expensive. Might be
easier to put out a press release on the web site, saying something like
"we would like to assure users of Linux and similar OSes like *ix and
*BSD that AFAWK there are no vulnerabilities in *x mail readers to the
recent love bug, etc".  No need to mention that other OS. Then email a
few journos in the electronic press about it.
