Microsoft is very good about releasing patches and making it easy to install. For that matter, RedHat and Mandrake are also very good about ease of updates. "What's that he said; RedHat needs updates?!?" < / sarcasm>
99% of virus problems are from people too lazy or uninformed about updates and virus protection.

Symantec & Network Associates (McAfee) are making some big bucks this quarter. Those companies will be the next sweethearts on wall street.

We rolled KB823980 as soon as it was released. We had seven infections out of an installed base of 17,000.
