Amen. :)

PC-cillin is on the little Sony notebook that I'm going to begin
setting up today as soon as I get the battery charged.

What order should I proceed in?

1) I have the CD for the SP2 to install on this year-old copy of
Windows XP-Home which the notebook comes with.

2) From there I need to go on-line and obtain all the XP-Home SP2
updates.

2a) Should I first replace the AV, then do the Windows Updates?

2b) Or should I let the bundled PC-Cillin run, and then after the MS
updates put my AV of choice on?

3) I already know the third piece of software I'm going to install on
the new machine: It's called The Bat!

P.S. I am on broadband, but behind a router. I'm either going to use
the Sony's wifi that I presently don't know how to use, or else take
the Desktop cable connection to Comcast loose and attach it to the
little notebook for all this downloading.

Special thoughts and prayers for me, a "babe-in-the-woods" of new
hardware and software, will be greatly appreciated. :)
