Re: [BLUG] Virtual Box OSE: The Issue

The first thing you do when you get a new XP install is put Firefox on
it and use FF. That keeps IE from crashing.

The second is spend a couple hours on Windows Update. The third is make
a backup (or save the VM state) so you have a pristine install to go
back to when it gets infected with malware.
