Paul & Group -

Ubuntu is indeed good at hardware probing & installation.
The Fun starts when WIndoze XP stops getting security updates and new
software stops supporting it :^)
Anyway - I though I would email this Apple trip- trap ...

Paul,  i would like to recommend a free virus removing tool that we have
been using for a few months on windows based operating systems. It is called
spybot-search and destroy. Available on the Microsoft site but I downloaded
it from their own site with yahoo. It removed 6 viruses, 52 Trojans and 120
plus questionable files from my wifes computer and found 3 viruses on mine.
It also can scan full time so that you don't have to run it from the desktop
after the fact. We had one hiding inside the search engines and could not
edit them out or reinstall the search engines. Mozilla fire-fox and Internet
explorer were both inoperable.  Administrator privileges were grayed out,
files were hidden and  it compromised the date coding of files. Spybot-
search and destroy cleaned out 320GB hard drives in less than 10 minutes.

That is disgusting. Switch to Linux for all your Internet use.
Keep the Windoze computer for stuff that does not run on Linux.
That is what I do.
