Get Linux or Mac if you want security. Unix and its derivatives were designed to be secure.

MS products were never designed to be secure. That's why I won't do business with anyone who uses MS technology on their Web site.

"I'm so perturbed about the whole area of rogue diallers… If we don't make a concerted effort to make the Internet more secure, it will be a very different place in the future," Gibson told the conference.

This is both pathetic and hilarious.
