ยป The best way for Windows users to be safe on the internet | Spyware Confidential | ZDNet.com

Suzi Turner of SpywareWarrior.com quotes Mike Healan from the Spyware Weekly newsletter on his position concerning the only safe way to surf the Internet...the VMware appliance. Mike's four part article covers a lot of good basic steps to make the appliance running on the VM player more useful. He also discusses doing updates to the virtual environment which you will need to do as Linux or Firefox security issues are found. The VM player itself may have a security issue from time to time too. So pay attention to updates.

I'd like to hear how consultants are doing encouraging people to use this tool to avoid problems on the web. I'm interested in how they take to this virtual Linux environment from a Windows one. How about their multimedia experience via this approach? Anyone have some feedback?
