Last Tuesday I complained that MS in their infinite wisdom had discontinued Windows Defender for Windows 2000 OS. The implication was that the new Defender was incompatible with Win2K.

Well, some geeks are now telling me this is not true; the Installer program can be altered (edited) to install the new Defender on a Win2K platform. Details available at: http://www.compatdb.org/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/175747/page/1

I have not yet had the time to try this, so cannot comment on this "fix". However it looks attractive and I'll give you a status report when I have taken the plunge.

Comments welcome!
