Do freepers know about the
NX bit and 64 bit Windows 7 using these two things to block about 98% of the viral ways you load your computer with nefarious stuff?
Never ever run as an administrator user. Always use a 'standard user' for your browsing.
Of course if you click the "accept" button, you are in trouble.

This NXbit can be used on home computers that are not networked? Does it work with all OS? I was trying to research intrusion protection systems after listening to Beck earlier, but it was a little confusing to someone limited understanding of all this computer tech stuff.
Also, I believe my pc is probably running as an admin user. How do you change it?
Thanks for your expertise, Tarpon. :~)
