PCI DSS - a funny one because we are in funsec

Reading "PCI DSS Requirements and Security Assessment Procedures, v1.2"[1],
I found an interesting requirement in the "paper work process" on page 28 :

"Deploy anti-virus software on all systems commonly affected by
malicious software (particularly personal computers and servers).
"

Everyone in the security field know in advance where the next
malicious software will be ;-)

I'm now guessing what will be the standard answer (especially at
heartland payment system) :

"We never had any malicious software on this system, this is not
commonly affected"
