Who the hell said that? No one in Open Source community you can be sure.

I don't think you can say ANY open source software is bullet proof, but does
it really have to be? I mean what self respecting hacker goes after open
source software? No challenge, the code is right there! duaa.

OpenOffice, free, probably buggy, but still free. (Don't forget to donate)
Office 2007, $149-$599, probably buggy... crappy new file formats that no
one likes.

"The best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to
study great programs that other people have written. In my case, I went to
the garbage cans at the Computer Science Center and fished out listings of
their operating system."

Uhhh...I'm using Mozilla strictly as an ng reader, nothing more.

So? You're the one who chooses to piss on open source calling it "open
sores". Nice attitude coming from someone who uses Mozilla, an open source
application that the developers were good enough to provide for you and
others. Don't you think you should show some respect? I guess a pig like
you just doesn't have the ethics required. (nor any principles, since you
continue to use open source software, while shitting on the whole

It is also a browser, but I only use IE7 for browsing.

You would. So? Does this justify your unprincipled bullshit?

Oo is an office suite application, you moron.

I know what Oo is, and I also know the difference between
a "proof-of-concept" virus and one found in the wild. You obviously don't.
