I was on sloooow dialup,256k ram E-Machine running an ancient instal of
Windows ME ,no firewall,no antivirus,no updates, nothing.
A nasty worm drove me to download Kerio 2.1.5,and whatever version of
Avast! was current circa 2005.
Stayed with both ever since on at least one machine.
the only thing I ever kept nearly that that long was A-Squared free,
which I gave up after the Ikarus addition made updates huge and slow.
