Hi geo, UBANTU is a brand new version of Linux which is very user friendly than other types of Linux and as we all know virus can hardly breach the security or firewall or the file system of a Linux based system.And,wonderfully you can use ubantu as a program on your windows system,be it xp or vista or windows 7.With this you can surf and download using ubantu so that you've no chance of infecting your system and then switch back to winwows system while you are not connected with internet.That's it.You're free do do anything.Try it,dear. One last thing Ubantu is free of cost operating system.What you need to do is to register to the official website of ubantu and ask for the operating system CD.They won't charge you anyway. Thanks, Happy MyLotting!!
