I have winXP (dual boot). I rarely use it, but need it for scanner and Family Tree. Not using the internet with it - do I need to do the above to make it secure? Already have some of the stuff like AVG, Spybot - but haven't kept up with it since using mandriva for most everything.

I run Windows XP and Windows 2000 on separate hard drives and I do not use either for web access - with no problems. The Windows XP has no anti-virus and is used for burning CD's and phone troubleshooting of customer systems. Windows is a lot better when its not allowed on line :) (dont tell the linux folks I aid that)

Okay, that's pretty much what I thought. Actually - I do still sometimes take photos there, as not getting good print output in gwenview, but very new to using it.
