Internet Explorer (the big blue e) has a serious defect that hasn't been fixed- and XP will NOT be fixed!

Rather than repeating the details, please see "Critical zero-day endangers all versions of Internet Explorer-- and XP isn't getting a fix."  If you want to keep your computer and don't want to spend over $100 to get an operating system (Windows 8) that may be "too much" for your old computer, consider installing Ubuntu, or having me install it.  See my blog on how to convert to the operating system called Ubuntu and keep your old XP.
