I respectfully disagree with pretty much everything you wrote. Being a
sysadmin for a company where I have to secure both Microsoft and *nix
boxes, I can tell you that there is a MAJOR difference in the security
levels of these two different OS's. However, I'm going to leave it at
that, and
One of the biggest things Linux has going for it is that most Linux
software is written to avoid security risks. With any platform there's
always going to be a few exploits where programmers made a mistake that
somebody finds a way to use to their advantage.
For example, using Outlook
I respect your opinion, and in fact agree that there are significant
differences and that Microsoft has holes in it's security, but the original

Viruses. A Statement which is patently false. The Fact is, Linux and other

let me make a few points to help you
first of all, alt is not a tag, it's an attribute
secondly, alt is NOT a tooltip

themselves to make their stupid browser display the contents of
the alt attribute when you mouse over
Get a broadband router and you don't have to worry about additional ip
addresses. The Linksys and similar routers all have NAT and DHCP without
costing much than a decent router and you get an additional security
benefit. Especially if you change the default admin settings.

Very nice colours. I like the aqua and I really don't *like* aqua normally.
