I have been using EigerStein from the LRP on a 486-66 w16mb, and NO HDD for about 2 years with no problem. Since it boots from floppy, once running, you pop out the disk, and even if by chance someone hacks the F/W, you can just reboot. I have run this against some online security test sites, and they have all never been able to get more from my computer behind the firewall than my browser version. It leaves a FEW things open by default, but those are easily corrected. Ken Hawkins
