Hmm I must be one of the lucky ones.

I haven't had my box crash since Win '98. And the last (and only virus) was then, also. I wonder what I'm doing so wrong so many others are doing so right? (/chortle)

I've had corrupted files once in a great while, but I Ghost my system partitions frequently. An SCSI HD was going bad once, but I have 2. And I don't install a bunch of stupid apps like a little girl. 2 firewalls. And I clean out the thing and make sure all the fans work.

*L* Exactly.

We got a nice setup here. Cable modem through a router. Got Zonealarm Pro ($30), AVG Antivirus (free), Spybot and Adaware (free), and Google toolbar (free) for the pop up blocker.

Cheap yet effective...
