Any large piece of software (such as an OS) is bound to have bugs and
security issues. But where the problem lies now is that MS is starting to
offer services (and will no doubt start charging people) to mask these
problems rather than fix them.
And yes, other systems have security flaws but when have you heard of any
other major exploits wreaking havoc on these systems? You may say that
these other systems just don't have the same market share as MS but consider
the Apache web server. AFAIK there are many more Apache servers on the web
compared to IIS. When have you heard of any Apache exploits crippling
entire networks?
