> 2 weeks before the machine gets compromised. ...I must say though (not bragging, by any stretch), that I do have a Windows XP box running on my LAN, default install, *no Service Packs installed*, just running AVG, and it's never been in any way compromised, not even with spyware. I can only assume that my beloved BBIAgent firewall has been very effective, and I can't say enough nice things about AVG. It's just too bad that people even have to worry about it, considering the far superior alternatives. I certainly would never even consider exposing that XP machine as a server of any kind. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 / www.freeyourmachine.org 21:16:24 up 10 days, 12:26, 10 users, load average: 0.23, 0.17, 0.13 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Either you repeat the same conventional doctrines everybody is saying, or else you say something true, and it will sound like it's from Neptune." -- Noam Chomsky
