Question for computer geeks:

Is it Windows security sucks compared to other OS or hackers just like attacking Windows because of more “bang for the buck”?

Hopefully they will hire someone else to do the Google Toolbar for IE, that thing sucks.

Well Google is a direct competitor of Microsoft so this makes sense.

Hehe - I ditched Google for the same reason, as well as the liberal slant to their results.

This strictly PR for Google to back Microsoft. Where there are crooks and robbers, they will find a way into any system.

Windows just became safer. For the China-based hackers, the target was Google, not Windows. Windows was only the vehicle of attack. They’ll now turn their attention to Mac OS X and Linux exploits, while Microsoft will continue to fortify Windows via Windows7.
