Good point.
Some questions concerning your remarks, though.
1) New Symantec products do not support Win 98.
How would I stop Internet hots?
(viruses, troian horses with more)
And how much would that cost?
2) I use several browsers, one of these being Firefox and I have done it
for a while.
Would that prevent hots from attacking the OS without using firewalls and
antivirus?
3) Don´ t you see any advantage in learning to use Linux at least at a very
basic level?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
