Default SECURITY ?? !!! ??? ....

OH...FOR GOODNESS DAMNED SAKE !!!

....surely there is a SINGLE ...all singing / all dancing - "install it and
forget it," ...REALLY, REALLY GOOD
....firewall / anti spy/scum/mal/crap-ware application out there that can do
everything for me automatically,

.....without having to read through HUMUNGOUS volumes of stuff like :-
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/...moving_Malware

....don't get me wrong - I'm immesely grateful for the untiring efforts of a
large number of decent people out there like
David H Lipman, ...and the above hyperlinked site etc.

....but I'd like to use my PC for other things , now and again ! :-)
.....without having to spend inordinately huge amounts of time fiddling and
tweaking and spyware scanning etc.

regards, Richard
