Microsoft's Responsibility
I am not climbing on the "Bash Microsoft" wagon but consider this. This company, through it's monopolistic policies over the past 20 years, has most of the IT community bound to their products. They have made multipled billions off of our businesses. It now time for them to step up to the plate, take the "Security" bull by the horns, and start to invest some serious money into fixing their software. I understand that this is a serious commitment, but it would appear, for all practicle purposes, that they are just "keeping up" with the curve and not getting ahead of it. We as a community have to apply the necessary preasure to bring them to this commitment or start to take a serious look at alternative Operating Systems.
