...So what you are saying is that the MS system IS the reason for viruses and malware, etc? You are saying conflicting things now. You say it is not MS fault, then you say that Apple doesn't have it due to HOW the build and control their system. Therefore MS lack of controls (easy of customization) is the reason for the issues.
I mean, we can't expect people to be smart enough to use common sense. Have you seen a product of any kind WITHOUT a warning label lately? People are stupid. Apple realizes this and makes their system so that it is better for the average user. Like I said in the first place. The above average user CAN make a PC work as well for less money, but not an average user.

Just don't follow links in pop-ups.. :/
Internet Explorer did not just discover 15 new viruses and you did not win 1,000,000$ for visiting a website.... :/

Again, talking about the average or below average user (by definition over 50% of users). They are just not smart enough to understand and catch all of those things.
