Few people... you wanna hear a funny story? There's this group of hackers, and they wanted to hack into Microsoft Complement Database in Redmond. So they got through level one, level two(there are, as the legend goes, 7 levels) and so on, untill level six. And what do they encounter there? A RedHat distro of Linux! So go figure [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I wasn't talking about Apache, I was talking about Linux in general.

I don't know too much about Linux, what I am saying is that it is targeted less by hackers (meaning succesfull and unsuccesful attempts both) than Windows because less people use it.

My bad then, but let it be said in my defence that I am not very experienced with Linux and heard that argument used many times.
