I got the Windows 8 Preview on my laptop, and it's pretty cool. All my Windows 7 programs work the same, which makes me wonder...
Is Windows 8 just as susceptible to viruses as windows 7? I dual boot 7 and 8, and use Comodo firewall and Avast! antivirus with windows 7. Alternative, less popular operating systems like OSX and Linux are at a lower risk because the vast majority of viruses are designed to infect Windows XP/Vista/7 systems. I guess I'm really asking if Windows 8 is susceptible to the same viruses as windows 7, and if MS put in any extra security measures in Windows 8.
