Say no to share .EXE files.
You must not install very many Windows applications that you download
from the internet. I don't know of a single Windows install program
that isn't an .exe file.
Maybe you only install Open Source programs and download the source code
and build everything on your machine. Me, I prefer to just download
stuff from sites that I trust, install it, and be done with it in less
than 5 minutes, instead of downloading source (if it's available),
re-configuring for my specific machine hardware/compiler/whatever,
building the source, searching the internet for problems encountered
during build, discovering that I need a newer version (or older version)
of the gcc compiler, downloading and installing it (remember, you HAVE
to download the gcc source and use a previous version of gcc to build
the new version since you don't trust any of the mirrors that have
pre-built binaries), rebuilding the application that I had originally
tried to build 2 hours ago, blah, blah, blah.
In the meantime, I have already gone out, seen a movie, had a beer or
two with some friends and enjoyed myself instead of fighting with trying
to build everything from source code.
GET A DAMN VIRUS CHECKER FOR THE LOVE OF MIKE!!! :)
