Hello and welcome to MalwareTips!

For me and others will say Linux is safe since the environment itself is different with few vulnerabilities occurred as its not the most use by operating system + faster patches for anything it will discovered.

Windows is more on entertainment purpose/ high demand usage therefore more security problems occurred.

I used Linux. Many says that Linux is more secure and I don't believe that. What i found is by default normal user does not have root access in linux. You can do similar in Windows to. Just create guest/limited user account. But off course there are more viruses for windows because it's widely used.

This is just my opinion. Please Linux lovers, don't pin me down :D

Hi Parth Dhanani. It is a joy you discovered and chose to create a thread in introductions!:D You chose a very interesting poll subject. Although I'd marked linux for reasons already gone over by Puchku Chele (we won't:eek: pin you down, Puchku.:p) I continue to use Windows most often. Do you use linux and, if so, have you a favorite linux desktop environment?;):)
