Nobody's used my XP for a malware playground since about 2006. I used to
have about a dozen traps and traces that put a stop to all that. Now I
only have one, and it hasn't seen hide nor hair of a single trace or
sign of malware in the 6 or so years that I've had only that one sentry.

Not my problem if people can't use their computers and browse the web
sensibly. And I repeat, it's not something I should be continually beat
around the head about.

So please stop beating me up about it, you fools.
