Actually, UNIX (all flavors, including Linux and *BSD) holds the largest footprint (65%) whereas Microsoft holds around 25%

While your figures are debatable, you still improperly grouped all *NIX products together, which is a false anology simply because not all virus for some *NIX products affect other *NIX products at all. This is a perfect example of the disengenuous arguments you people constantly make.

Once again, more proof that Windows closed-source "security" is just a disaster waiting to happen.

Your defense of Chineese hackers is sickening.

It's not misleading at all. You claimed that Microsoft had the largest footprint. THAT was a very misleading claim. I showed that it was untrue...then you pull this red herring? Please.

Pot -> Kettle -> Black

It's no defense of the hackers; it's a pure condemnation of the B.S. "security" that you claim Microsoft possesses. THAT is what is truly sickening.
