3rd copy sent. I've looked into Macs for their general immunity to virsuses and spyware... I've alreday had to reinstall Windows on THIS hard drive once thanks to something basically crippling my ability to even boot. Whatever it was made Vundo look tame, too, as nothing would remove it, not even digging through manually.

I don't like having to reinstall Windows. My files stay, but sound, broadband and video drivers have to be reinstalled, and certain programs also need fresh installs afterwards.

... I keep my driver install files on USB stick. I can still use the 56K modem while crippled but it's a real hassle to find and download much anything with basic functionality.
