Thanks - I saw that on boingboing a while back and had completely
forgotten about it<g>

Smug b*ggers like me check the RunRev Use-list via a Mac or a Linux box
so any viruses out there will just lie around on one's hard drive and do nothing
either interesting or harmful.

As Linux costs nothing and one can get hold of a second-hand PC for next to nothing (street prices in Bulgaria currently running at: P3 = EUR25, 17" VDU = EUR25) it behooves everyone (gosh; I've been longing for an excuse to use that awkward verb for ages)
to "rush out and buy one" for 2 very good reasons:

1. One can check one's e-mail without getting twitched to the eyeballs about viruses.

2. One prevents an old PC ending in a landfill and transmitting filthy pollution into the
atmosphere.

Probably a better bet than Aluminium Foil: mind you; one of these might be a good idea:
