Microsoft is constantly updating their software. Sure, they enjoy being hacked..Get a clue.

Tu quoque. Who said anything about their enjoying being hacked? Of course they're constantly updating their software--replacing one hole with another as fast as they can.

Remember, these worms and viruses are able to do what they do because of weaknesses inherent in the software (remember their problems with security in MS software for financial transactions?). Sure, they're "updating" their software, but in the manner of a door manufacturer saying, "Oh, we just discovered that although our reinforced front door cannot be pulled out of the frame and is really secure against such attacks, the panels in it can be slid aside, allowing unauthorized entry to the home. Be sure to call us to get someone to come by to fix it for you."

"Oh, we just discovered that although our reinforced front door cannot be pulled out of the frame and is really secure against such attacks, the panels in it can be slid aside, allowing unauthorized entry to the home. Be sure to call us to get someone to come by to fix it for you."

Actually, this is one of the dumbest thing I have ever read. Let's try this; "Oh, we just discovered that several carpeneters spend their lives trying to find flaws in our products because their doors aren't selling as well. They have discovered that if you try hard enough you can pick the lock and open the door. Not just our door, but they have it out for us. So, here is a better lock, but beware, the carpeneters aren't happy unless we look bad, so they will eventually find another hole."

Fort Knox in able to be penetrated if you know what you are doing.
