Well, I asked for an example of an drive-by infection on Linux or OS X. I am still waiting.

The original post claimed that it isn't easier to infect Windows, i claimed the contrary. The fact is that we see drive-by infections on windows all the time.

If other OS's was equally insecure, we would see attacks directed to them as well. Vulnerabilities are there, but we don't see drive-by infections. So if you can give an example of a drive-by infection on Linux or OS X, I would concede. If you can't give such an example, you should concede that you are wrong.
