Shame on me! I didn't realize that the poster was none other than the famous "Anonymous Coward", who is as old as Slash... sorry, The Internet itself!!:)
Mod me redundant, but the weakest link in security is the user. If you don't believe me then tell this user to buy a Mac.
I use XP at home (mostly for gaming) and I try to stay updated with the patches and virus defs; I use Eudora Light (and I don't open unknown attachments) and Mozilla. Thanks to all this, I still haven't seen a virus on my PC since I bought it 2 yrs ago.
Why is it then that the Win/OS gets the most infections? Simple, since it is the most widespread OS and it is sold as user friendly, it is the system that concentrates the majority of the stupid users.
