Yeah, because there is an OS out there without vulnerabilities.
Jesus, what are you looking for? There will always be vulnerabilities in software. It's amazing there aren't more in Windows and other Microsoft products considering how much code is involved and how often they are updated.

A human wrote the code, a human can crack or find holes in said code. Don't see why this is a surprise...

i would like you to build an unhackable OS that runs on 90% of the worlds computers, and once you do that, then you can call MS out.

There's been nothing in my Windows Update for a while now. I was starting to think I was running a secure stable operating system.

Maybe they did improve it. Hell the OS has been out since december last year to beta testers and not to mention all over torrents. Ofcourse someone is going to find a way to hack parts of it. In the end it's not Ms fault its the people out there that find new ways to get in.

The amount of individual patches you receive over time to prevent "remote access..." etc is ridiculous tho. You would have thought with win 7 they would have improved the core code, but apparently not. but either way, get off my neck - its an opinion |
