The real answer is: wave goodbye to Microsoft and their Windows operating system, and INSTALL LINUX. You'll love it!

Whether it's Vista, XP or whatever, it's just more of the same M$ junk, full of security holes, overpriced and overcooked.

The Linux revolution is happening right now, with some superb distributions available at tiny cost ($10-$30). Linux has no license number to type in, no product activation, and you can install it on as many computers as you like, again and again, for all eternity! It's a superbly stable and secure computing environment with aggressive separation of different users on the same PC.

Plus the desktop is SOOOOOOOO cool and customizable - it makes Windows look pathetic. On my Linux Mandriva (running on a Dell Dimension 2400) I get the full Open Office suite, perfect DVD movie playback, rock-solid CD burning with K3B, Firefox, FTP, CD rippers, vector drawing programs, screen grabber, screen magnifier tool, great e-mail applications and MUCH more.

Plus (another plus) - when installing software you don't have to keep re-starting the computer! You just install it and use it. Simple.

Surfing with Firefox under Linux is truly surfing in a tank! Even the worst hacker site attacks just bounce off the armor-plated Linux.

So how much did my Linux Mandriva cost me? Well, er, nothing. The disk came FREE on the front of a computer mag which cost less than $10. There is no product activation, no serial number, no Windows "Genuine" stuff or any of that. This Linux lasts forever, there's no "time out" or limit. I can install it again and again on all my computers, and then make a copy of the disc and give it to all my buddies - that is allowed under the GPL license.

PLEASE try Linux - it's not yet perfect but we're working on it! Leave Microsoft and their nonsense behind you.

BE COOL - GET LINUX!

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.
