Idiot, you need to look at the vulnerabilities area of securityfocus...Browse the MicroSoft section, how could anyone in their right mind recommend Microsoft as a solution with those kind of problems?

In the 48 months (1996 to 2000) Exchange Server solution Customers - - who are also customers of Microsoft?s IIS web server (for Exchange Web Access) and Windows NT/2000 - - have endured an onslaught of approximately 310 security vulnerabilities (3), this was two years before the vendor became interested in securing their products. Since then 504 more security flaws have been discovered in their products.

?The PSS [Product Support Services of Microsoft] Security Team has not been able to determine the technique that is being used to gain access to the computer," the company wrote in its security bulletin posted on August 30. Microsoft has yet to identify the root of the problem, only saying that it has noticed some major similarities between the string of hack attacks."
