Craig Steiner said:
As long as users can install and execute programs that can access the Internet, the world will be subject to the effects of spambots, botnets, etc. The OS doesn't matter. But a system that DOES allow hermetic separation of the concepts of "Userness" and "admin-ness" is a major link in the chain of safe computing. Windows does not. "Root escalation" is considered a FEATURE of windows. Steve |
