Lots of vulnerabilities there (and no doubt some additional more to be found) but virtually nothing to protect the XP user from a hacker or other users he unthinkingly victimizes. XP has been out for 12 years and you're trying sell the idea that there are "and no doubt some additional more to be found" ? Yes I know Windows8/8.1/10 is more secure than XP because Microsoft says it is. I don't believe it. Microsoft screwed consumers with the new Office and Windows graphic interfaces. Microsoft would generate a whole lot more revenue of they'd listen to consumers instead of trying to convince them they are the problem using fear mongering and scare tactics.
