I think it should be the responsibility of the operating systems vendor to make sure that it is secure. Common sense really.

If you spend all that money to purchase an authentic Windows operating system, why should you have to spend more money purchasing protection for it?

About time.

What a ridiculous idea!  A secure Micro$oft operating system??!   :crylaughing:  What do you think all the security software vendors would do?  They would have to start writing viruses that they can then claim to be the first to cure...  Sorry...?  Oh, apparently, that's already been done...  :whistle:  :grin:
