M$ should just bite the bullet and re-write windows with security in mind, give it a true process scheduler, multi-user with windows as a client server processes. Build in 256 bit encryption and secure communications between processes and external communication with no unencrypted traffic. That would shut down a lot of these mindless security leaks. All mail should be encrypted and point-to-point, with the mail servers only able to re-direct and broadcast mail with authentication. Maybe we could slow a lot of the hacking down and spam. But again until the market place demands it M$, Linux and everybody else it's business as usual. Keeps us employed I guess.
