RE: Windows Security Test
bah wtf ?
:dodgy:

"Your Security Rating is Fair (68%)!"

just because I use Windows 98 and don't visit the stupid windows update site that often.
Oh, and because I use an "unknown/other browser" (opera) :-/

"You are running a very old verion of Windows. You should consider an upgrade to Windows XP."

Why should I ? My Win 98 is stable and fast. -- Never change a running system. --

"Your automatic updates service is off. Click here to learn how to turn it on!"

Pfff...no.

All in all: Dodgy site, dodgy poll. Not recommended, inaccurate. :-/

Technically, you really should upgrade to at least windows 2000, as Microsoft are no longer creating updates for 9x/ME. Of course, there are computers out there which won't run XP at a decent speed, which is of course a good reason to keep running 98.
I don't see why they have a "Do you have Automatic Updates activated" and a "How often do you visit Windows Update" question, the first one kinda cancels out the second, doesn't it?

agreed, those questions ae totally not precise. stupid example: anyone with a brain can download warez without getting viruses. ¬¬ just think of the fact that msoffice is larger than 4 megabytes. ¬¬

98 was a decent OS, it still is with all the current updates... tbh XP is just a waste of resources.
