by april of 2017 support for win vista will cease..this means no more updates either automatic and manually.. which would make my pc easy target. a tech friend suggested that i get WOT (web of trust) to alert me of any potentially dangerous sites that i come across. i also am rating sites on my own. i rated CH as "good" and "trustworthy":woot: so now iam really thinking of saving money to buy a new pc...a chromebook 13.5 inch one -must be under 300 dollars.

I have Vista, too and keep getting the message that it won't have any updates. I already saw that and they keep on telling me about it. That WOT sounds good. I'm going to write it down. Maybe I'll go back to firefox but I don't know how to bookmark with it any longer. Ugh.

Thank you for rating CH!! Great idea!!!

I recently bought a new laptop and it's an ASUS with Windows 10. Already had a glitch but logged out and rebooted and the glitch was fixed. I also had issues with Skype but today I THINK I might have fixed it by installing an older version of skype and disabling the updates. Crossing fingers.

ive been having glitches on my pc since 2010. please pray that my pc will hold out until january 2017, when by then i should be able to buy new one. CH deserves the rating i gave to WOT. nothing negative about CH, woot!

I've figured for a long time that the first line of computer defence is a healthy dose of paranoia. If you've got a decent firewall and don't do things like open unexpected attachments or click links that strangers send you, chances are you'll stop most attacks before they even happen.

My laptop runs a full virus scan every single day and, aside from an occasional tracking cookie, only very seldom reports anything untoward. If it does have a report to make it's almost invariably a virus in my email that already got tagged by my spam filter, and just sits in my spam folder until the automated cleanup gets rid of it.
