Windows users read my stuff, but almost never download anything. Are they afraid of software?

Perhaps Mac users are more trusting of random software on the internet due to the lack of malware on OS X?

That might be true. My sister just got a new laptop (won it from a raffle) and she refuses to download any software that's not from a major company that she trusts. She's too scared of getting viruses so she just uses it for web apps/sites.
