The required data is in English. The rest is not important.

yes, it's possible - but in general no one do so -since IIS is much better than Apache, and if you have bought Windows Server - you already have IIS.

I have strong feeling that members of this site hack sites themself and put results of this page... In any case you may see the tendency - the share of Apache (~*nix) - is much larger

Why should I be interested in this? I do not need it, and not going to use

I also want to post few questions:
Do you know that very large part of Windows XP source code was stolen and published on the Web about year ago?
Did everybody from Anti-Microsoft society talk how now they will find 1000 of bugs and create 1000 of viruses for XP?
What happened with that promise?
Nothing, because there weren't such a bugs, and it wasn't so easy to find out, like some pseudohackers thought.
PS: consider that "Windows" = "example that closed source technology can be good"

Sigh...you started with "Do you know what's the most bugged OS" and now you're talking of "feelings"?
That's not important for statistics :) ^_^

Alright :), but please, don't choose Microsoft as someone that respects standards :))

I have used word "feeling" about WHO hacked all these servers - and in any case, it's not important who exactly was the hacker - we need to look only on results. And the result is clear - the most hacked servers use Apached (almost equal to *nix).
And do you know the percentage of Apache and IIS? Please, do not show me netcraft - they have report of distribution by domains, not by servers. (e.g. one cheap linux hosting with 100000 home pages - it's 100000 domains).
But if you will search in archieve - you will find the one their report which show distribution by servers - and IIS there have > 50%. Now they don't make such researches. I guess they just don't like that IIS is the leader. (Yes, they are also MS-haters like w3c).

Why do you call these standards??? W3C DO NOT HAVE any standards, only recomendations. (You may also meet together with friends and write you own "standard" for HTML - it will have the same value as w3c "standard")

You're making a lot of suppositions (that queries aren't so
reliable...I'd like to see not the Server program, but the OS): you can
hack the server program, but this doesn't mean that you have found a
bug in the OS, right? That's why I asked you: "Do you know that Apache
can run also under Windows?" That means, that maybe that hack can run
also under Linux...didn't think about it? ;)))
I'm not interesting who is the winning leader,I've already told you:
everybody needs and use the tool that wants. And stop saying that
everybody who looks for standard (again...do you know what's accessibility? I've already asked you...Microsoft NEEDS to work with W3C:
http://www.w3.org/Submission/1997/3/
And about DOM
http://www.w3.org/Press/DOM-core
Please...Microsoft works with them!

***SIGH*** you STILL prove me that you DON'T READ...

Re-quoting
Sending iCalendar and vCalendar Objects
The
iCalendar protocol was developed for collaborating information between personal
information management (PIM) programs over the Internet, independently of
differences between program vendors or operating systems. Several major
companies were involved in the development of this standard, including (among
others) Microsoft, Lotus, and Netscape, so there is wide support for this
interface in the computing world today.

Adding some color to the important part (maybe bold also...you'll see it I HOPE!!! ;))

Can you read now? :)
And BTW: iCalendar is not a standard of W3C, but of the IETF...still not reading, how boring :(((
Hope you'll change :DDD

Did you post the questions to me? :)
Actually I didn't, and I wouldn'thave cared...why?
Because only idiots would say "I've got the code, I'll find the bug,
but before I'll tell you how many bugs I will find and in howmuch
time"...
See,there are people who don't understand Windows (as there are a lot
of people in this forum that don't understand Linux)...It's not
important to attack Windows because "It's the enemy!" (as well for
Linux): finding bugs is a way to improve security and the correct way
to work for a program...
Just two questions:
--This happened before or after Sasser?
--Explain me why what you said is related to "Windows" = "example that
closed source technology can be good"...maybe what you said means
"Windows XP" = "Something harder to crack", but I don't see the
advantages in the closed source in your message ;)))

Like I said, "shutdown -a", is it serious threat to system?

Anyway, we posted our arguments, so it isn't important do I understand your arguments, or you understand mine, or who quoted, it is important that those who read this topic understand.

??? What do you mean?
Sasser was a way to to use RPC (do you know what's that?) to take control of a computer...
Would you like that someone you don't know would be able to control your computer and shut it down? I don't think so...

Feel free to answer as you like :))), but in this topic, I don't think
that you have explained why Closed Source is better of Open
Source...;)))

Teach me, please... :) . If he had user privilegies, for example, to delete some system .dll files, or to edit registry, it would be different thing, and it would be dissaster. This way, that was excellent exploit, but he couldn't harm harder to computer with common shutdown, and it was fixed very quickly.
PS. You have built attitudes about Open Source, so I don't have intention to continue arguing in infinity. It isn't about who have the last word.
