After years of Windows Virusses, Outlook Viruses and other malware in form of spyware etc. I sometimes feel that there can't be enough of those things. We need even more Emailviruses that shut down corporate networks. Maybe eventually even the slowest decision makers will understand that either they have to put pressure on Microsoft to finally (after years) thing a tiny bit about security or to search for alternatives.
Then again, I think it's perfectly right to punish virus writers if they are caught, since it's a crime.
But I can't think of a company that get's away with such a blatant ignorance of their users security as microsoft. Maybe people or Microsoft have to learn it the hard way and seemingly it's not hard way enough yet.
