I would hope not. It is not the standard setup and it usually
serves no purpose. It probably makes the computer somewhat
slower though.

I would like it too if the operating system protected itself
from every possible damage.

I guess though that we have to take it that computers haven't
reached that level yet. They are like cars in the early 20th
century---you had to have your tool box with you and open the
hood pretty often to keep the car going.

I hope the time will come soon when computers will be as
reliable as cars. (:-)
