What he's saying is that "is windows secure" is not really a relevant 
discussion for Linux-IL and has nothing to do with "Common problems with 
Ubuntu" which was a vague enough topic to begin with.

You only asked for a couple, so here there are:

A lot has changed since Windows XP. Beyond Security is a member of the SDL 
program at Microsoft and get to see first hand how serious they are about 
security, and they really are serious about it. But this is a very long 
discussion and this is not the approprated forum for it IMO.
