[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1335526, member: 110816"] Just like a regular PC running Windows, you'll want to install some anti-virus in the Windows running in the virtual machine. THe VM doesn't give any necessary protection to Windows, but does give you the opportunity to quickly remove and re-install if you wish. The other option is to install Windows and then create a snapshot of the pristine clean installation, should your Windows installation become compromised with a virus or something, restore to the snapshot and you're back in business.. You, however, risk losing any applications you've installed and any documents you've created..so understand that this shouldn't be the way you would normally do things.. [/QUOTE]
