99.999% of the users out there dont care about security.
Otherwise we wouldn't have so many worm and spam mail.
And i'm not only talking about windows users.
It's really a minority for whom security is an argument.
The others.. just use a el-cheapo firewall and think
they have done everything they can do and everything
else is bad luck (if they even think that far).
