Now see everyone thinks MS is crap for security issues well not anymore. I mean why does it seem that they always have people say "I hate you Microsoft" when security flaws are in phpbb now.

People who think MS sucks then you better learn MS is not the only company with security flaws in software. I mean everyone makes mistakes like me and my development of my new site. I am saying that software will never be 100% perfect unless we get robots to code or something lol.

People like to blast MS because it's a huge company that has huge exposure. If open source softeware becomes as widespread as MS people will begin to see all of the flaws that it has.

It's just like perscription drugs-you can get all the way through FDA approval and actually go to market but miss a serious side affect until you multiply the number of people using the drug by a huge number. It's all a numbers game.
