I`ve been reading many reports about Vista. People who are far more expert than me, such as McAfee. saying it`s un-secure. Bank accounts will be prone to attack, more that they are already if banks use it..It wil enable Microsoft to see what you have on your hard disk. ( They do that everytime you update anyway ). I`m hearing that hardware will not work unless it is Microsoft Approved. More bad reports than for any other Windows version. Will you upgrade.. I sure as hell wont.. It`s Linux for me...

Since installing Norton, my PC takes 7-8 minutes to boot and is constantly chugging along with high CPU usage while I'm working on trivial tasks. What can I do to make it more efficient? There don't seem to be many configuration options with Norton (Security Suite?) 2007.

I believe that a friend of mine, whom I briefly allowed to use my computer, has either installed tracking software on it or has given himself remote access to it. He may have even transferred personal files of mine to himself. I walked in on him, and saw some sort of activity to this nature, but he closed out so quickly, I could not tell. I am not too saavy to computers, and would like to know if there is a service provider that would be able to scan my computer for tracking software.Most importantly, if any file transfers had taken place. I would really appreciate any input or advice.

Thank you.

I have been communicating regularly by email with someone who I know lives in the United States. I have been checking some of the IP headers of our emails and noticed that on some that the IP address is coming back saying it's located in the Netherlands. I am very confused about this. Is the person using a proxy? Or are they having someone else send me these emails?

Someone sent me a virus on msn and even though i have tried to delete it with norton anti virus, it comes back up again the next day. When i do the virus scan, my msn works fine. but the next day, the same problem occurs. my msn starts sending contacts random msgs.
how do i solve this problem once and for all?
is there some way in which the virus can get deleted from my computer. when i try and search for the virus on the computer search, it says the file doesnt exist so i cant personally delete the virus.
