In a recent test, it was found that Windows operating system versions could be easily hacked for a minimum of 60 minutes.

Windows XP Professional versions that are not installed security patches can easily be hacked in just 1 hour and 12 seconds. While an attacker must take up to 1 hour and 17 minutes to break into the Windows 2000 Server version, the patch is not properly installed. For Windows Server 2003 an attacker will take a little longer.

Meanwhile during the six weeks of testing, Linux server versions - Red Hat and SuSE servers versions - cannot be cracked even though they are frequently connected to the Internet.

In another test, attackers took only 30 minutes to successfully unlock Apple's Mac OS X operating system, even if the version was installed with patches. " Breaking into Mac OS X is an easy task ," said a hacker who participated in the test.
