No fear of hacking with Linux BECAUSE ...
I can install a stealthing firewall AND KNOW that IE is not going to encounter some stupid, heretofore undiscovered ActiveX exploit that will knock it out. No fear of hacking with Linux? Sure. Its MY system and I know what I'm doing. I got hacked once a few years back. And responded to that with the firewall and that was the end of that. With Windows, my best shot is Zone Alarm or something similar and then hope that it won't be defeated by some Windows extended 'feature' that makes Windows the owner instead of me.
