That's not exactly what I meant, but I guess I can agree that any
unpatched (Pirated or not) version of Windows are potential botnet
hosts.  

What I was saying is that if more people knew you could pirate a copy
and still get patches, rather than spend $200, do you not think they
would?

But that aside, if M$ let people update pirated copies, would that not

let more people think they can pirate it, rather than buy it? Which 
would make a larger bot network by your theory?

This statement assumes that "ALL" Windows machines are potential botnet
hosts......
