    Jeff is a fucking idiot. I downloaded the update last night aside from the fact that it was slow as hell to install it is working splendidly. A side note W10 is the best release of Windows ever it is the most efficient and smooth of all. Bunch of whiny Luddite geezers on here.

    My Settings haven't been working for a little over two weeks since that update. Now all of a sudden, overnite (last night) they work again, with no input on my part. Fucking magic...
    Did your system restart?

    Sevens good. Beyond that you're being played by MS. Same as any Apple product. Proprietary tech is only good for so far then you have to ask yourself who the upgrades are benefiting.

    Unfortunately it's the geriatrics (and Buttplug) running malware-infested XP computers that spew out all the spam and malware these days.

    They should be banned permanently from the Interwebs.

    Maybe an idiot, but one with a good business. Why fight what works. Windows 10 won't bring me more clients or keep better financials. Easy to use and no fear of unscheduled upgrades like the original.poster is dealing with.

    Why fight what works? Are you serious?

    Well, let's say for example you get hit by fileless ransomware and you're asked to pay in Bitcoin.

    That's you and your little business royally fucked innit.

    Win XP is no longer patched, so pretty well EVERY security patch that Microsoft release tells hackers how to attack all those naive chumps still using Win XP to browse the Web.

    The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me. *


    * But not Buttplug, he's a proven fucking moron when it comes to computers.

    We work off external SSDs. Nothing is saved on the desktop except the operating system and a few applications. Worst case scenario is some time lost to install a new OS. My research shows most malware comes from opening attachments from unknown sources and going to porn and gambling sites. Really not much at risk. Be careful opening attachments and stay away from questionable sites and the risk of viruses is minimized.

    Horseshit.

    Most people now know not to open suspicious attachments, but even that isn't adequate protection these days.

    And more and more legitimate sites are being hacked - without the owners even realising - to install drive-by attacks that can fuck you up without you even noticing.

    By all means continue to be kamikaze about your business, maybe you don't have much to lose, but you're a prize fool if you're running an internet-connected Windows XP machine.

Been my experience that staying behind the technological curve pays off well. I also have a Mopar 318 with over 250k miles on the odometer, no doubt you'd rather go down to the show room and buy something new for security reasons.

    The fact that you equate your clueless actions with some dilapidated jalopy shows just how uninformed you are about the risks.

    As for "Where are the vulnerabilities that Windows 10 protects".....

    hackers go after the new guys, typically idiots with Win10, they don't care about Win2000 and WinXP guys, so we are safe
