I was hoping that you wouldn't notice the date on that one. I did find try to put the articles from 2011 at the top of the list.

I think the key isn't that OSX is completely secure and Windows is Swiss cheese. I think the important point to remember is that if you want to catch as many folks as possible you target the biggest group which would be Windows users that use MSIE.

If you want to recruit as many bots as possible to launch attacks, or if you want to phish as many PCs as possible or if you want to wreak as much havoc as possible, you'll attack the most common OS and browser. That's why Windows gets the bad wrap, because more folks use it so more folks target it.
