At one time, probably ~1999, installing Windows NT and getting to the then-current IE _required_ downloading Netscape: microsoft.com would only work with Netscape and IE 3(?) or newer, and NT came with IE 2, and of course you couldn't get and IE upgrade without going through microsoft.com.

I'm sorry - Windows XP and no anti-virus? So this computer doesn't connect to the internet anymore? Or do you enjoy having to re-load the OS and close lots of pop-up windows?

Yes Adam, believe it or not, it's possible. You just have to be conscious and safe about what you download and install. You also should use a non-MS mail application.
