I can't really take this guy's comments, this is the second time of my life I chose to "talk back", simply because he pisses me off.

All he says is that there is a problem in Windows, but any answer is never given. Should Mac OS X be any less complex than windows? should linux be? if 80% og all users used linux don't you think there would be quite a lot spyware for linux too?

The problem is not windows, the problm is the users that believe that their computers are "smart" or even "intelligent", and are thereby able to take care of themselves. a computer is a dump tool, which is supposed to help you do a bunch of trivial stuff.

If you stick to software that you trust, you should never face any problems with spyware, but if you use a 1000 different "freeware" program for various small companies it is like bying a "real Rolex" in China, and trusting the man to be honest.

I look forward to some more serious comments from this guy!
