Re: Etch Nonsense why Scrub Etch from the net?
Debain Org
Thanks so much for the links. I don't run Flash anyway and don't use it to log in right now. If I can get Lenny to permit me to insall the codecs I need to watch the average Dvd and a faster processor I might try Lenny again.
Would you say Etch is less secure than OS X 10.2 Jaguar or old Firefox browsers?
Thanks
John
