So, an estimated 25% of computers are infected with viruses or Trojans?
I would link this with the recent news item from Microsoft that 22% of Windows computers have failed their Validation check and are pirated copies.
Microsoft, of course, refuses to patch these 'illegal' copies of Windows, thus ensuring a ready supply of computers open to Trojan attacks.
Thanks a lot, Microsoft!

P.S. I run PCLinuxOS.
