I note that the Banking code section 12.9 advises users to 'Keep your PC secure'. http://www.bankingcode.org.uk/pdfdocs/PERSONAL_CODE_2008.PDF
This is something I fully support. However the Code goes on to give specific advice about how this should be achieved: 'Use up-to-date anti-virus and spyware software and a personal firewall'. This is perfectly reasonable and appropriate for users of the common Windows systems however, many users do not use Windows, and this advice is badly worded for the millions of non Windows users, and may cause confusion. For example I do not use Windows on my PC because even with the facilities you recommend, I do not regard the system to be secure enough to do my online banking. Please inform me of the recommended software for non Windows systems for functions of anti virus and anti spyware functions? Alternatively you might like to consider a slight re wording of the Banking Code so that it may be held in greater respect by PC users who choose to avoid Windows, and have done extensive investigation and are well informed technically? -- alan cocks Ubuntu user -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
