    Forgive my bias, but number 11 should read:

    11. Using Microsoft Windows and/or Internet Explorer.

    It's because of these security holes in Windows that I switched to Linux. I never worry about malware, viruses or spyware anymore.

    Yeah thats the really big problem with Windows. I think it is also why technicians prefer Windows based machine on their clients so they will not be out of job... they have lots to repair ... unlike when you use linux or Mac
