Be serious. If MS obliges to every Windows horror story, it will definitely go bankrupt.

Speaking of Windows horror stories, we've noticed an increasing number of relatively undetectable rootkits at work. The only thing which seems to find and remove them is the latest apparently beta version of TDSSKkiller. We have no idea how they're getting on the machines, as at least one of them wasn't even accessing the Internet. Entertaining, but what else can I expect with Windows systems?

Well bang goes the theory that Windows has more viruses purely because there are more units out there.

There're hardly any Windows Phone 7 in the big wild world and they all seem to be riddled with malware already.....
