That's probably one of the top contenders. I seem to recall reading somewhere
that the average life of a RH 6.2 box that is placed on the Internet after a
default install is only about 24 hours.
It would probably come down to which distro has the most services open by
default (and RH 6.2 had a lot of them). Thankfully, RH is getting a lot
better about this (as are all the distros).
