Operating Systems, just want to let them know that there
are some things that should be avoided.

I do recommend using the FireFox browser instead of
Internet Explorer to browse the Internet. FireFox is a free
browser that offers enough usefulness to be useful and it is
more Internet compatible than Internet Explorer is.

If people are really paranoid, I could suggest the Amaya
browser which is available free of charge from the people that
set up the HTML standards and is found at this link:

There will be a substantial loss of functionality though with the
Amaya browser. But it is free and it is slightly more secure than
the FireFox and a whole lot more secure than Internet Explorer.

Or . . .

Get a Mac!
