Story: Spyware still hijacking Internet Explorer

I can HIGHLY recommend Mozilla Firefox as a secure web brower for Windows. The tabbed browsing function is great and you dont pick up any spyware. I use Mozilla for my internet banking.
Get mozilla from www.mozilla.org

To anyone out there with continuing virus problems on their Windows PCs, get a Mac mini and be virus free. You can use Open Office if you dont want to spring for a copy of MS Office for Mac, you CAN play games on the mini but make sure you have 1Gig of RAM. OSX is secure out of the box against ALL viruses due to its UNIX underpinnings and secure design as opposed to the old myth of "security through obscurity". OSX works very well on Windows specific networks and can be set up to log onto a Windows Server using the open source SAMBA which many Linux fans will be familiar with.
