I appreciate everyones' and I do mean everyones' input on the security thing. I now definitely have a better understanding of it. Completely different than windows as it always has been and I'm very happy to find out it is the way it is. My wife does have AVG and some other programs to protect her. And unfortunately she has to defragment her hard drive once a week or so. She'd go on to Suse herself, but as she is a 56 year old student going for her Phd, she feels hesitant about movine over to Suse and Open Office. The school she goes to require Microsoft Word formatting. I assume Open Office can be formatted the same way.
It's amazing that degragging is still required in this day & age. I ran OS/2 for many years, and with the HPFS file system (available in late '80s) defragging wasn't required. Here it is almost 20 years later and Windows still requires it. As for her PhD, OpenOffice can probably do what's required. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
