Linux isn't as secure as you think?
Linux has been looked at as a secure os by many, but I ask you, how is an opensource os secure? Wouldn't it be easier to find a hole if you were looking at the source code? It's like giving someone the key to your home or the password to your alarm system. Then it can be asked why aren't holes dicovered in linux often? The anwser is simple not alog people are looking for them. If the top and most used os was linux, then they would be found fast and easy. It's easier to find directions if your looking at a map.
