closer,

Once you have that OS installed and all the updates done, you'll be happier. Dont get me wrong, I like 2K, but XP is a lot better.

Are you behind a router? Anti-virus installed?

The reason I'm asking is, the last time I installed XP PRO, I was trying to get hit with a trojan right off the bat.
