One of the best things you can do to protect a Windoze computer is to

The only problems are the alternatives. I use Linux on one computer here.
Nice O/S, works great, but, unfortunately, the hackers writing applications
for it have short attention spans. They get to ver .996b then lose
interest and move on to another, more interesting project, never returning
to finally incorporate all the bug reports into ver 1.0. At least with
Windoze there's enough shareware money coming in to hold their attention to
fixing the bugs. (I'm a shareware payer, by the way.)

training wheels you can't remove, just isn't worth buying a $200 program to
do something when the same functionality program for Windoze is $29 from
some shareware coder. For that reason, I've never been an Apple fan....
