I hate getting into debates like this but I hate winbloze. I'm my development
projects I've always wrestled with ease of use vs. security. To many
people I've stated "If I make it easy for you it is easy for the hacker".
The article below only briefly mentions MSFT products as being the possible
breach. In this case millions have been spent in development and much
of that can be lost due to the "ease of use" of outlook. And a dose
of shite programming.

I hope that many in the world soon began to say that enough is
enough and start using an OS other than Windows.
