Who's to blame for malware costs?

My latest blog over at Free Software Magazine discusses the issue of malware (viruses, worms etc.) on Windows machines and exactly who is to blame for the cost of clearing up the resulting mess.
From the full post:
A couple of stories have hit the headlines this year concerning the huge cost that some UK Local Governments incurred when dealing with malware attack on their Windows machines. . . .Some in the industry tweeted and blogged this as being a “hidden cost of using Microsoft Windows”. In the ensuing discussion, many pointed out that the high cost was really due to the lack of a proper patching and disaster recovery policy at the council. So which is right? Is dealing with malware a hidden cost of using Windows or of a poor IT strategy?
