I disagree.. MS would have been hit harder than other OS's regardless of the number of paying customers. The argument that Microsoft is the most popular and therefore the most hacked is inaccurate. Apache is on more than 2/3 of all web servers and IIS is STILL the most hacked. Sendmail is on the majority of all (internet facing) email servers and Exchange is the most hacked. Do I think Microsoft tries to screw up?
... Where do you get your figures about MS Exchange being hacked? And sendmail vs exim vs qmail vs Exchange? I'm not disagreeing with them - just I am not aware of this being a regular method of systems penetration. -- Andrew G.
