I've 'heard' before that this isn't much of an issue on non-window OS's (at least, comparing to windows OS's.)
Is Windows Phone likely to have more *-ware problems that Apples and Androids, since it is windows? (wildcard so that this includes bloatware)
I know this is a very general question, with more gen. questions inside but this seems to be the most suitable section on the forum for it.

Hearing about CryptoLocker almost makes me feel enlightened for not using windows.

There is always the possibility of getting a virus, but for the most part it is pretty slim. I have AVG on just because I am surfing the net about as often as using an app.
