>>Question for Allen. If a virus was to get through on XP it is my understanding that only the XP section would be infected. Am I correct in this? If so one can still do most of what one needs to get done on the Mac side. Later you can go back and tediously reinstall your OS and all your windows programs etc.<< Doren - That's pretty much the case. If you share a directory (folder) between operating systems, there's a slim chance that a virus might do damage to that directory. But if you do the prudent thing and back up your Windows disk image after you get your apps installed, you'll be able to just restore the disk file and won't have to reinstall everything. - Allen
