What's the point in having a virus scanner running in background if...

1) you never use IE
2) you almost never download warez etc
3) don't use any MS product except Windoze itself

....

Great. You're mailing thru MSN which is obviously in the banlist of my provider's spam protection program. I sent you a mail today with the buttons, let's hope it arrives. If not, don't you have a normal mail address???

of course i am mailing thru msn, but im using my .net passport thingy on msn, which isnt considered spam any anything or anyone. in fact thats one of the things most email spam protection use to decide wether or not its spam.

so yes that is my normal email adress.

What could I add... just modify a bit:
2) you never download warez
3) don't use any MS product except Windoze for Unreal
4) LINUX RULEZZZZZZZZZZZ

Did you know there are more exploits in Linux than there are in Windows, and that Red Hat doesn't patch them as frequently as Microsoft?

In the it-literature I read it is furthermore suggested that the total cost of ownership of Linux based servers is way higher than of Microsoft based ones.

It is well known that Linux doesn't provide a solid graphical user interface yet, so it isn't even an option for most professional users.

What exactly does Linux rule?
