but a moron friendly windows box allows for viruses, adwarem ... To make a widows box secure no need to be every bit the expert that one would have to be on a Linux box. I suggest you try Fedora, it is just as easy to install and use as Windows..

A secure Windows box is easy to create, during the install XP asks you if you want to make any more users, say yes, make one, give it the lowest level of permissions, use that user. Real simple.

Why would I try Fedora? Can you play Madden 2004 on Fedora and get support from EA Sports if something doesn't? Until that's the case there's no reason at all for me to try anything but Windows. I'm not a tweaker, I'm not a bleeding edge experimenter, at home I surf the web play games and update my resume. Windows does all three of those things exactly to my specifications.
