Another reason to leave Windblows

Hi,

	I now have another reason for people to leave windblows.

	I came home to find a message on my answering machine.  It was the 
security department at my ISP, Rogers.  They temporarily disconnected my 
internet because of a trojan virus from the windows side of my computer. 
  I almost never used windows and used the internet on windows even 
less, but still ended up with the virus.  Because the windows 
installation was new and I hardly used it for internet, I never had a 
virus checker installed yet, but my ISP would not re-connect my internet 
until I did a scan and deleted the virus, but I was unable to do so. 
So, I did what the tech guy at the ISP said, I deleted the windblows 
side and made my laptop a 100% Linux machine again.

	My internet was disconnected because of windblows, if I was only using 
Linux I would have never had the problem.
