Hi
Thanks for that. I have windows 7 and will make sure my security is as
up-to-date as I can make it.
Thanks Amanda

Hi Amanda,
That is correct. The thing about security is that everyone is a sort
of link in the chain. If you are able to keep your PC clean of
viruses, Trojans, worms, and various other malware you won't be able
to pass it onto anyone else and infect their PC. However, if you were
running out of date software with poor security you have a greater
risk of getting and passing on malware. You also have a risk of a
cracker finding a back door into your PC and either damaging your
personal data or using your personal data to steel your identity. It
is in my opinion unwise to stick with old software that will no longer
get security updates, because anyone online will be at risk of being
victimized by unscrupulous
crackers.
Cheers!

hi
Won't people need to move away from XP now due to the fact that Microsoft
are not making any security updates? Didn't someone on this list say

anyone who is running XP now will be putting everyone else at risk or am

wrong about that?
Thanks Amanda
