Nice anecdotal evidence.

Mine is that this has never happened to me since I switched to different OSs than Microsoft's, circa windows XP.

I use iOS and CentOS regularly. It doesn't happen either.

However the former has a different security model and the latter is mainly run by experts. The point is moot.
