OK dad, no need to be patronizing or rude
Now V here, as well as myself except that my Windows machine runs W2000, run a firewall (I run 2 firewalls) and Mozilla. I would also guess that V also has up to date antivirus software, does not use Outlook or Outlook Express, and probably whacks most attachments. You tell me, how does V or myself have one of these buffer overflows exploited? Now before you reply, think and give a specific scenario, like going to a particular web site or getting an email and explaining the action performed. Nothing vague, like 'you just have to' or 'Microsoft says so', and no namecalling -- try to give the appearance that you are knowledgeable and credible. By the way, if you run IE or any Outlook, there isn't any antivirus software or Windows update that can completely protect you forever.
