MS Bashing?
So, you think worms are a Microsoft problem? Ask Robert Morris about that one.

I hate to think your hatred ot Microsoft would make you ignore facts and evidence.

Look, the goons who write worms, viruses and trojans, are criminals. They target the market because they want to steal. its not that Microsoft products are easier to exploit, in fact they are above average. Its the billion-user base that drives their efforts. If SUN, Apple or Linux were the predominant platform, those systems would be the ones exploited.
If there were not one major standard, we would be back in 1981, when a word processor was $795 and OS'es were even more. I suspect you could not afford software if it were not for all the advances Microsoft led. I doubt you would be on the internet if you had to use CP/M, much less MP/M86, or VAX OS.
Look, (to borrow from the Black Panther leader, Bobby Seale) "If you are not part of the solution then you are part of the problem."
Why not quit bashing the best software company in the world and create something? Or at least quit hiding behind a pseudonym!
Stand for truth or shut up.
