More incorrect lies.
Once again, you people show your pure ignorance.
You continue on this bad assumption that the average user that this affects, if they switch to Linux, would not be running in a root account all the time.

Bad form, and pretty stupid of you to assume such a thing.

You also forget social engineering. Had the average user saw on the cd that they much run something else, then boom. Got ya.

Plese keep up the false dreams guys. You are fooling no one.
