I'm sorry, I just had to jump at this one point; Windows is probably the worst on the market when it comes to security and it is widely known that Linux is so safe that most users don't even need Antivirus installed. If I didn't have any antivirus on my Windows my machine would crash within a couple of weeks. I like Windows and I've always used it but when it comes to safety and bugs it gets low scores indeed. In fact, the only thing Windows is actually best at is compatability and, to me, user friendliness. |
This is a common misconception with Windows. Every new version of Windows OS has stability issues at the start, but MS irons these out in about a year or so. However, Windows still is the most secure OS. Yes, you don't need an antivirus for Linux or Mac OS; that's not because they are more secure, but because there aren't that many (if any) viruses for them. Windows has the largest market share in OS business and that's why the virus makers make it their platform.
