Folks,
Get Patching? Now, if that doesn't sit well with you, maybe you have had enough of the 'the malware problem is yours' being put on you each day.
Come over to Ubuntu Linux 9.10, which runs AppArmor by default and profiles Evince (Document Viewer, pdfs) and Firefox 3.6, just to name a few Apps which are safely protected in a security model called: Mandatory Access Control (aka sandbox).
There won't be any need to rescue your PC on a daily basis as Linux has a very low incidence of infection, by virtue of how the operating system is written, designed from the beginning with true multi-user security in mind.
So, step off of the MS Malware insanity treadmill and give Ubuntu Linux 9.10 your serious consideration.
You won't regret it.
