It wouldn't be fair to say that the OS is the only contributing factor in security. For the most part the OS doesn't play much of a role in network security. Thus we have Norton and McAfee and all these other fabulous bits of bloatware designed to protect you, your computer and your network. On a sidenote I find alot of people switch off the UAC in vista, a major improvement in the MS OS's and the majority of the people turn it off!!!
Im not saying the OS plays absoluetly no role in security but most people forget about the extras... especially the users. Users play a big role on how secure your network is. For example, on one of my own networks a user (because I refused to giver her remote access) went and installed a backdoor on the network and then made an exception for the directory of her backdoor in the AV. It was on my network for about 3 months before I even realised what she was doing.
