Man I have said this before, but I have been on the internet/on-line 
since the BBS days, but I have never had my PC "attacked", had a program 
crash my machine to the point where I had to reinstall the OS, I have 
always used an admin account on a windows pc as my main account(same on 
my current macbook).  My current router has a firewall, on it, but I am 
not getting attacked.  Maybe I am just lucky, but I doubt that.  I think 
I have had 3 viruses or malware on any of my machines, and none have 
gotten past my antivirus software.

But if anyone is interested I am currently uploading the unzipped 
coco_archive.zip file a website.

you can find it here:
