Linux security is generally better than Windows, out of the box. In other words, by default, most modern linux dists are fairly secure. However, when users get frustrated and do things such as disable their firewall, then all things are equal. I have had a few linux systems hacked into, once because of my own stupidity, the other due to a DNS (bind) flaw that I did not update, even when an update was available.

AFAIK, most hot keys in Linux are the same as other O.Ses. Cut, Copy Paste are good examples, as is F1 for help.

With that said, don't hate something because you don't understand. Just read a bit and try understanding it better. Then perhaps your fears will go away.
