[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 799113, member: 37647"] This is the objective aspect of it. But from a subjective perspective, a careful user on Windows often feels like he is on the defensive. Downloaded software is suspect, documents from unknown sources are suspect, your child's flash drive is suspect. So you configure your security solutions, you check for digital signatures... On Linux, the subjective experience is very different, because you are not a target from those attack vectors. [/QUOTE]
