Hi,
I was fascinated to read your comments re Linux and AV, anti-spyware
software. Can I take it that one really does not need these protections when
using a Linux system?
Regards,
John.

There's no reason to think so. It's still MS, and they still have to
accommodate a lot of hardware and software going back a lot of years.
Interestingly, to me, anyway, I've given an old Linux box to a friend
who's never used a computer before, and he's plugging along successfully
with a minimum of questions and no problems at all. (And no AV or
anti-spyware software).
Sometimes I think Spyware will be the death of Windows.

Is it looking like Win7 might improve things?
