It used to be, but after reading about windows viruses I am not sure it is.

If you are running an OS besides Windows or MacOS, yes. It is never a good idea to install Windows to begin with, let alone reinstall it after it's been hacked once. It's only a slightly better idea to install MacOS to begin with. -- Shawn K. Quinn <skquinn@rushpost.com> http://www.rantroulette.com http://www.skqrecordquest.com
