To bo honest I dumped XP for this reason, and I went over to Linux/Ubuntu 7.10
I have got more memory back, its just as fast, all programs are free unlike XP buy every thing under the sun.
Its free and legal. It takes far less space on your HD.
It gives full updates.
The support community are very friendly.
Am I glad I dumped XP for this? yes I am and I don`t regret it.
So now I have a dual boot system Ubuntu 7.10 on one HD and WIn2000 on another.
Why Win2000 and not XP? because I see Win2000 as a lot less troublesome.
Some people may or not say that Linux is a pile of crap, but believe me its come a long way and its very good.
So IF you go the Linux way then go Ubuntu 7.10.
Oh yes and as far as Virus is concerned then Ubuntu don`t need to worry.
You can download it and put it on ISO file on a CD or order it FREE and they will send you a copy FREE you DON`T pay a thing.
