Isn't it true that if you are "fully patched" (as painful as that is) that these virus's don't get you? I'm not trying to stick up for windows in any way, but at work, our sys is windows, and we haven't had a problem. Our IT guy and i talk about it, and he thinks his next small company will use linux, but in the meantime, he keeps the system up to date and we have had no sobig problem. Don't get me wrong: using microsoft programs every day sucks. I feel handicapped at work now that i have linux at home. I just want to make sure i understand this. eric -- Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org Join the content organization discussion: http://mandrake.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/NewIndex Join the General Wiki Development discussion: http://mandrake.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/DevelopingTheMandrakeCommunity#Discussion
