[QUOTE="smartyMAC, post: 552350, member: 33037"] Windows Vista + XP has only 44 vulnerabilities!!!!! What a joke. If that's the case what does those "frequent" security updates from MS contain?? Are those vulnerabilities also counted? MS is so known to manipulate the survey results. If they say windows has only 44 vulnerabilities, why they are still easily breakable by the hackers.... It's rare to see a windows machine unbreakable out of box. Any OS has bugs and that's why we get the security updates from the vendor. But the inherent architecture of MAC (UNIX) is much much less prone to large scale damage than any windows system. Out-of-box permissions on MAC ensure that the damage is mostly local to the user home area and doesn't get any further. [/QUOTE]
