Hehe, you totally missed the point
The operating system itself, has got more holes in it than a string vest

And yet you trust it enough to put it in charge of your applications and their data? This is what I thought was funny: you don't trust MS enough to use a utility like a firewall but you do trust it enough to use their entire OS! It would be like saying "Ted Bundy babysits my children but I certainly don't trust him enough to be my gardener."

Funnily enough, I haven't read anything about the firewall being breached so if I can be an ABMer zealot for a second, you are using the OS which has been proven to be "full of holes" while refusing to use the one thing that actually seems to work!!!

Thanks for the laugh!
