What did I misconstrue?  You stated that you believed that admins were
at fault for worm infections.  I quote, "It seems to me that it is each
admins responsiblity, if they were affected ( infected ) not the coder."

What about your statement quoted here did I misconstrue?  Admins are
affected by worms the same way that a crime victim is affected by the
crime committed against them.  Some argue they were in the wrong place
or they were dressed wrong or they should have known better than to be
where the criminal was.  Your argument is essentially the same, is it
not?
