Seems rather obvious, but why would anyone open a document from a strange person who has no relation to them? It's the same principles that apply to email. If anyone is stupid enough to open a strange document, they deserve to be infected.

You're an ass.

It did occur to you that people who download and run files from someone that they don't know are vulnerable no matter their platform, right? No OS is immune to dumbasses.

And before you get all militant on me about Windows, I use Linux. I just have the sense to know that you are full of crap. Standard arrogance to be expected, of course.
