Um....
I've worked on many machines over the past ten years, and about 95% of the machines I work on that have to be rebuilt due to viruses, worms, spyware, etc...are running AOL...why is that?

I don't see how your title connects to your posting.

True, any idiot can launch a virus or DoS attack nowdays, but surely you're not claiming that almost all malware ORIGINATES from AOL users, are you?

Or did you mean that they open any email that plops into their mailbox, opening their system to whatever payload may be attached?
