Follow your advice and get caught when a virus written for Vista shows up.
You still assume Bit Locker is as good as a firewall although many experts
with far more knowledge than you told and proved otherwise.
Your own inability to understand the facts does mot make for safe computing
for others.
No where is there a reputable source suggesting running Vista without
antivirus, certainly not Microsoft..
What does that say about your suggestion to "Accept Vista as it is, or,
Abandon Vista"
I would rather protect the computer and abandon the malware.
