The 2 versions of Tiny XP I tried were 100% clean - and I use ESET NOD32, the best AV program - AND I pay for it, even though I know where to get free def updates - I am not ALL evil ;-) I noticed that in XP "versions" I have tried, the "malware" found are usually the MS updates/verification "workarounds" and disablers. Generally, I have found /maybe/ 5 or 10 malware instances in 10+ years of DL'g stuff from the "usual places" - I like to try programs, but I usually delete them after 20 minutes. I am certainly not going to pay $50-$500 to play around for 20 minutes! OTOH, I /have/ happily paid for free/donation programs of /real/ quality. <snip> >>> When/if I have to move to Win7/8/9000/ whatever, I hope >>> LitePC has a version for that system, too. >> >> I was hoping for that, but it does not seem so.
