Anyone willing to prove security doesn't exist, get an A in my book.
Aboiut that security focus website, it didn't get hacked or defaced, the website that does the advertising for security focus got hacked.
Also "labels" such as White, gray, black, are not used much, since everyone starts somewhere, usually in front a weak windoze box, then they realize they need a virus scanner, then they realize they need a firewall then they realize they need a better firewall, or they forgot to get that almight trojan scanner, then they use proxies to hide their ip, they they "Secure their pc, then they named their box" or their "machine." Then, and only then do some start dual booting with Linux installed with their weakly configured XP OS, they they realize they can do everything XP couldn't do right in the first place. Then they make the switch to Linux, and use that instead.
But these steps take time and I seen it over and over, and very few stay with linux, and even fewer who stay with linux know how to use it properly. Then some people enjoy thier remaining lives configuring scripts on their spare times.
