We installed XP with the NTFS file system, choosing all of the factory defaults, then patched it with each recommended security update including SP-1 (required), before installing SP2."

The Placebo Effect: XP SP2

Oh, yeah, forgot.
When I'm emailing some pictures to my grandma I should tar, gzip, encrypt them, then RAR them with password, then zip them with password, and include MD5 for each.
Encrypt the intire email, have grandma phone me to get the passphrase and talk in secrete code on the phone in case...
