As a recent convert from XP to MAC, I have just one or two XP applications I would like to keep using (MS Money and Quickbooks). I decided to use Parallels 4.0 and plan to install XP Pro.
I do not plan to surf the net with XP. The only time I would go online with XP would be to download my bank statements.
Given this senario, do I need to install virus protection software? I would MUCH prefer not to if possible ( I distain the need for continuous upgrades and pop-up windows that come with most virus projection applications).
I deal with a nationwide bank. Am I correct in assuming bank statement downloads is a relatively low risk environment for a virus?
Thanks
