Wouldn't any *nix be the same? If you browse the internet as root and haven't setup your iptables wouldn't you be as equally silly?
Until recently, windows gave you admin access by default. Next up, Rootkits. So nice of MS to allow those. How about a side of layered device drivers.

Even if you lock it down, it's still not as secure.
