Microsoft or the criminals?

I'd start with Microsoft. This issue of Microsoft tools circumventing any sort of security has always been the height of MS' problems. Since they don't have to pay for the damage, they don't care.

Remember when you could not get a virus by reading an email? Then MS enabled html by default, because "we decided our users wanted a more interactive experience".

Then we can get into all of the macro programming in office that was implemented with no security considerations at all. etc.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Has never been more appropriate.
