Set your screen resolution to a higher DPI. I recommend 1024 X 768.

Dennis,
As a rule of thumb, if your firewall is running NAT (and they usually
do) and you're not forwarding ports to Windows machines on your side of
the wall, then you're safe from outside-in attacks.

That's because FAT32 doesn't implement permissions the same way - so a
chmod wouldn't have any effect, and

Kaj,
Try to pass an scandisk to your windows partition, I had a similar problem
long times ago due to disk-error; mandrake couldn't write in the partition
but after pass an scandisk windows detected several errors and repaired it.
Until that moment mandrake could again write on the windows pa
Hi all...
For the last 7 years or so I thought that Windows had no
security at all. Until today.
But first things first : I don't have Windows on my box. In
no way, manner, shape or form. Only Mandrake 9.0.
Well, a modification is needed here :

"Linux Partition HOWTO"
"Partition-Rescue HOWTO"
In one of the two (I think the first one) you'll find a rationale behind
the choice of a /boot partition. Both are available from the Linux

I was in the same situation you are right now four months ago. Right now
I rarely use XP (only when I need to login to some clients Windows
domain or to open old Access files). My setup is as follow:
1.- A 10 GB NTFS for XP.
2.- A 1 GB
