I never let my kids or wife use my PCs! You can trust what they do or click on. Download something bad and everything can be exposed. If your PC OS has holes in it, just clicking on a URL can give control of your PC to a hacker, even without doing anything, but looking at a web page.
 
search, scan, registery clean and spyware daily is my rule... takes a little bit of time but insurane costs

wifes PC was always seperate... need to get her a new one! Old one died - thanks Bill!

that's why for home e-mail I use a Mozilla product.... Who is going to write a virus for a 10% marketshare freeware product:thumbsup

but all in all for home leaning toward an apple product though......... issue is how do I fins an easy way to deal with the 300Gb/s of stored music, video's and pictures...........

I use an external hard drive ... have a 100 GB usb one for my laptop. Can get terra-b with little problem. If your looking for a server product apple ones are AWESOME! IMHO.... professional one also. unix based.... that says it all.

Same here with Mozilla. We use it on all our PC's. I keep my computer locked, everyone else (wife, kids) have their own PC & connection via the router. There's nothing critical on theirs to steel anyway :lol

Actually, if there's a hole in the p2p application, you're just as vulnerable.


But aside from that, I agree, Apple rocks!
