Answer 2

The reason Windows 7 is more secure is because of it's updates, Windows XP was founded in 2003 which may be why it is unsecure, all you will need is a better browser than Internet Explorer and a good anti virus software and it will be safe



Windows XP however is faster than Windows 7 because it's 3GB in size when Windows 7 is up to 5-15GB and Windows XP uses 300MB Ram, when Windows 7 uses 700MB



Linux and Mac OS are very secure compared to Windows.

Answer 3

User Account Control (UAC) makes Windows Vista/7 more secure than XP because it notifies and ask the user for permission to change system setting; however, UAC doesn't not protect against user stupidity.



Windows Defender, which is installed on Vista and Windows 7 by default, also helps prevent and remove spyware, although it's not perfect but it is still an extra layer of protection that XP did not come with.
