[Hidden-tech] Random crashes in XP?

[Tom / Reelife Productions]

Hi all,
Although, I usually loath the tired and annoying apple vs. microsoft
nose-in-the-air-debates, i  think this is an appropriate place to mention,
that in the 18 years that I've been using apple products, I have never owned
or used virus protection software and, more importantly, never had a virus
on any one of my computers.

The main reason i mention this is because I always read and hear about how
much  time, money and heartache goes into virus protection, etc.  it's
really debilitating for small businesses and seems very  unfortunate that
people have had to struggle with this over the years....

my .20 cents.

Regards,
Tom Adams
