As the article Magic Banana shared states, %60 of paid closed source software (85%-95% of freeware) contains malware. And this is quite sensible - it should be so.
If one is able to distribute a closed source software somehow, then one is in a position to exploit it, and there are a lot of incentives why one would want to do just that. (while the opposite is true for open source programs)
So, "maybe" should -logically- lean heavily towards "most". And indeed it does so, reportedly.
Not that it differs anything in the end at all. In this context, I think it sounds rather pedantic to discuss what "maybe" may be.
