I'd be wary of drawing any conclusions based on Secunia's data, since it's based only on people who choose to run their tool. It's like saying that only 2% of people are healthy by analyzing the health of people in hospitals.

I'd trust it a lot more if they picked 1000 people at random, got them to install the tool and then used the results.

Not to say that the results would be necessarily be much different -- just that you can't make overall conclusions based on this.
