Not nearly as many as before. Microsoft has made hacking XP such a hassle that most people don't try. The goal of security systems is not to completly stop hacking (since that would be impossible) but to make it so difficult that 999 out of 1000 hackers don't succeed and give up trying. Microsoft used to have a thousand lawyers prosecuting pirates, but now you don't hear a lot about that anymore.
