I'm looking for simple and advanced Win xp security tips, on and off line.
Maximum protection possible. Not links, but concise, sensible and reliable
security tips from good users. Thank you.

Use a router unless you are on dial-up.
Use an _up-to-date_ anti/virus program.
Use an _up-to-date_ anti/spyware program or two or three.
Use a software firewall.
Use common sense when browsing and opening emails.
Use alternate programs for browsing and email and newsgroups. (no IE or
Outlook or OE)
Turn 'sharing' off.
These should keep _most_ of the 'nasties' at bay.

Usually a good idea, except for maximum protection.

Why? They're all crap.

Why? He does _not_ want the system to get compromised.



And damn, you don't tell anything about restricted rights.
