If you move to Linux Mint . . . does anyone use their credit card for purchases?

Do any of you have a Special credit card for use on the internet?

Do any of you have identity protection on your non-Linux computer systems-?

And would you need it with Linux?

How many of you PAY for anti-virus protection if you use a system other than Linux ...

and how many of you never pay?

For those here who have fought -- or are fighting viruses/worms -- how long have you

been fighting it and has the situation worsened or improved?

Did you think you had it beat only to find it back again in new form?

How many of you simply PAID to get rid of the problems?

How many didn't and still have them?

Last question . . .

My computer is 5 years old -- Dell . . . and pretty seriously infected --

I'm not hysterical about it because it is 5 years old and was expecting to have to

replace it.

Do any here have computers over 5 years old? Would it be worth trying to rid the

computer of all of this considering the time involved, the aggravation -- and

even if a bare minimum of expense?
