Steve from Sidmouth says "Maybe everyone should run Linux and Firefox or some such Gates-free combination until he can produce programs that are not full of holes. Seen the latest exploit under XP? It gets around SP2 apparently."

Linux and firefox etc are probably just as full as holes - it's just that the people who make the nasties go for GatesWare because that way they hit the greatest number of people. If everyone changed over to firefox we'd very soon discover that it's just as vulnerable.
