Any security benefit to using WinUAE?
« on: February 01, 2006, 07:17:27 PM »
I was wondering, are there any benefits in terms of security to using WinUAE to do all your web browsing and net-related stuff?  As in, would there be less of a chance of getting viruses, as the virus executables wouldn't run in the emulator?  Although Windows would still be running in the background, but would have no reason to execute any viruses downloaded?  I also wonder if this makes sense, probably not.   :roll:
