    I was a bit ironic, but I believe that you dont' know what some BSD's are really.

    it's possible i might not know. i'm not exactly an expert in security or anything. what exactly are you referring to? the bsd unix os? because if you are, it's similarly vulnerable to rootkits. kong's book on designing bsd rootkits provides many examples of how bsd unix is not immune to them.

    unless of course that isn't what you meant by bsd. or perhaps you were alluding to some other feature of unix bsd that is more hardened than windows. please clarify so that i might know.
