False logic, thats like saying if 95% of cars were Volvo's they would be just as dangerous as any other car. sometimes something is safer because of its design..

And if 95% of people used Linux/Mozilla, spyware writers, virus writers, etc. would target them! Yes, it might be easier to mess with Microsoft products, mainly because so many have tried and been successful, the knowledge is out there because so many have it. No OS is absolutely invulnerable, just like your house, you have to use multiple levels of security to make yourself a harder target than your neighbor.

No, it's like saying that if 95% of all cars on the road were Volvos, then they would be in 95% of all car accidents.
