The “my OS is better than your OS” debate is usually a pointless exercise because the conclusions are ultimately unsatisfactory. It’s a bit like asking whose Mom makes the best apple pie. Sometimes Our prejudices get in the way of a logical debate, lets try and keep it going to what the Blog stipulates
"Windows is more secure than Linux".


However, despite being primarily a Windows user, I can’t help but feel like millions of others that Microsoft’s
“Winodws 2007 is see more one of the most secure OS on the market today in 2009”
which is an actual fact for the It Pros.

But to argue with Linux diahard fans, We should say that Windows is now much more secure than the older Windows OS.

All my Windows machines are beefed up with additional body armor in the form of firewalls and antivirus applications.

However while I know how to keep my Windows boxes safe from the bad guys.

The critical difference here isn’t the OS but the volume of people who are stupid enough to share applications with out the right protection or to open emails without the right protection.

I’m happy to leave my Windows open for months, without any worries.

That to me is a critical test in determining whether an OS is secure, for starters.
