Hi Jeff,

The only way there is a risk using the older software is when we expose 
the software to the internet. I am using a *licensed* copy of XP in a 
virtual machine on one of my Linux computers. The VM is *never* exposed 
to the internet. Another computer runs DOS. Also - no network at all.

73,

Bill  KU8H
