Hello,

I recently removed McAfee form my laptop with Vista Home
Premium OP. I installed the free version of AVG Antivirus for
virus protection in McAfee's place. I was going to look for a
firewall program too, but saw that the Vista built in Windows
Firewall took over that job. My question is do these 2
programs give me enough protection for my laptop? Can I trust
these 2 programs to protect my desktop computer? My desktop
is hard wired to my router

Your router has a firewall too,

Usually, it has to be enabled because it isn't enabled by
default.

This is garbage Alias.

Um, no it isn't.

Yes it is Alais.

Alias doesn't know squat...pay him no mind.

Another who can only hurl personal attacks and offer no
substantiation.

You asked in alt.os.linux.ubuntu how to get new linux kernel to show up
in Synaptic.
That substantiates that "you don't know squat"

Lucky for you, I knew (tho I am very new user).

Notice I've moved to kubuntu,ubuntu,XP,Vista quadruple boot.
