> Why would fewer people be looking at Windows compared to Linux? As I wrote in the original post, this is because Linux is open-source. There are few people looking at Windows, simply because there is no source to look at, and as a result there are 10 times less people in the world who potentially even can look at it and check for bugs. That's why. With Linux you need basic systems programming skill and ability to code simple exploits. With Windows you either need to be working there (and be assigned to this task) - or reverse-engineer, which is a much rarer and complicated skill.
