[Coco] VCC Color Computer 3 Emulator v2.0.1 - Public Release(finally!)

[Al Hartman]

If you run a good third party anti-virus/firewall program, and scan 
regularly. Windows XP is no more unsafe than any other OS. Especially if you 
are behind a router.

I have several XP systems which are fine, and have not been infected. You 
just have to avoid risky websites and activities like opening email 
attachments.

For the use case as a host for DW4 and Vcc, you probably aren't going to run 
an email client or do much surfing on it at all. It should be quite safe.

Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft and is no longer updated with 
security fixes. I would not suggested running anything on an XP system that 
is connected to the internet at this point as it will probably quickly get 
infected by malware. I would suggest upgrading to at least Vista or Windows 
7. If you must run XP, either isolate it from the internet, or run it under 
emulation, or both. Otherwise, well, good luck with the viruses you will 
most likely collect. Or…
Run Linux.
