The best way to keep your PC secure is not to go onto dodgy websites! And don't download cracks or software from dodgy sites ie any one purporting to give you something for free you would otherwise pay for.
The updates are massively eating of data, of which I only have a limited supply and take absolutely forever.

While I appreciate your experience, I'll continue with the course recommended by the developer.

yeah I think that I would probably also do the same if my experience of doing so wasn't negative.

I liked XP but I wanted a new laptop.

Totally agree. Unfortunately, I needed a new laptop for work, so I'm stuck with Windows 8 for the mo. Horrible, horrible os. Unwieldy and not at all intuitive.
That and to resolve compatibility issues.
Printer geek moment: Windows 8.1 does not support smb scanning, this should be fixed in the next update. I'm sure there's some other issues too.

My daughter started using Win 8 and she seems to actually like it. I, on the other hand, want my Start button.
Although I understand you can get it back now.
