Re: A complete wipe?

Once the system has been compromised, what script are you going to run that guarantees to restore the system state correctly? How can you trust anything that the OS tells you, once you've been infected?

It's not a Windows vs [U|Li]nux thing at all, it's just common sense, regardless of the operating system.
