After many months of inactivity my home computer is alive. I have parted the hard disk in a way to install many operating systems: Linux, openbsd and windows. Usually, for everyday use, I choose Linux as operating system, but to play game windows is necessary: I should complete Syberia II and I like to play Civilization IV. The next step after install windows ixp is to make it secure, IMHO is simple to do it: the most important thing is to use commonsense with the help of some good program.

An antivirus, a firewall and an antispyware make the windows desktop system secure against the normal attack (antivirus, spyware, trojan etc). In windows xp i have installed the next three programs:

• Antivir: freeware antivirus, during the program upload, a popup window invite you to buy it.
• Comodo: a firewall, to use is necessary deactivate windows xp internal firewall.
• Spybot search & destroy: spyware remover.
• C-Cleaner: remove temp file and optimize registry.
