Problems with Schaff - beware!

Yeap, for 8 years. Running dual boot with Windows XP and running it 
(Windows) only when I have to. Like for Cybertuner untherwise it's Linux 
for the rest.

And for 8 years, saving money on Antivirus Checkers, Antispyware, etc - 
Don't need them under Linux.

The last major virus (can't remember the name) that hit just about 
everbody - did not hit me - not running Windows and Internet Explorer.

Regards,
Duaine
