fucking windows is so fucking gay

Kintaro:
Okay, I have been cleaning my virus infected computer. It had 57 instances of the SubSeven Trojan on it. 2 keylogging programs, and other things.

A few windows DLL's were infected so I had to reextract all those from my XP CD.

Basically, Windows is shit.

A while back (a few months) I was running Windows .NET RC2 or somthing on my main server/router/dns, all the viruses except one I opened last night by accident are dated from back then on most the files.

This is a pure show of how insecure windows is, and why bill gates deserves to be murdered to death with my pork sword.

Xeen:
Yup!

Windows cannot anymore be connected directly to the internet. If it is then either you're gonna have viruses and trojans poruing in 24/7, (and even more if you use IE).

If you do connect it directly to the internet, but install antivirus and firewall software, then that also sucks ass because a)Norton hogs major resources, and b)Software firewalls are SO annoying. Constantly popping up telling you such and such is trying to access the internet. And even if you configure them properly, they're still annoying cause they cause problems with direct connections in AIM, p2p, or games.

The only way to safely use Windows with the internet is to use a router, which has a built in hardware firewall. That way you are protected, and do not need to constantly run Norton or any firewall software shit.

Of course...it goes without saying that if you use Internet Explorer then you deserve whatever you get.

you moron, you've said before that you use a router.

I can say from lots of personal experience that if you plug in your Windows box directly to a broadband modem you will get a worm or trojan very soon. This is of course assuming that you do not have everything 100% patched.

show me.

Unpatched and unfirefalled *nix box can be rooted as well, OMG! TEH LUNIX IS TEH INSECURE! if you don't keep up to date and firewalled, you can have just as many problems.  Linux is NOT the magic bullet of security.

that is what OpenBSD is for.

Each OS has its uses.
