So, let's see, if Windows has some security problems then you bitch, if any of *NIX programs has security problems, then you do what? Yes, you just hide it, like nothing happened.
I can't beleive it, it's not just that your super secure UNIX machines was hacked, program UNIX people rely on was compromised as well at the same time.
Good example to be given to government bodies about security involving open source. At least if I download from Microsoft I get signed packages first and second I get it from trusted source (I don't know any example when trojan was embedded in Microsoft product).
Now, please what you gonna say?

I'm gonna say that is old news, was spotted quickly and fixed and the only people who were effected were people who happened to download ssh from those servers for a few day period. People who would have been doing that most certainly would have been advised via CERT and upgraded.

Now, you on the other hand would never have any problems with Windows as mentioned in your own words:

You actually pay for crap like this? And like it?

lol

I'm going to say that all software contains security flaws, *nix or windowze software. The response time for proprietry developers and open source developers is what matters. Like konqueror's SSL bug which was fixed in 90 minutes while MS is still looking for a fix, that's what matters .....
