I've just been using Windows Defender (and common sense) on my personal computer for a decade or more and have not been infected either.

Defender may be great.  It's just that Kaspersky has been working for me and I don't want to change horses midstream.  If it ain't broke, why fix it?

Everything seems to be OK except my computer went to makin me sign in with a password with Microsoft Windows 10 on the desktop.  I don't need password on my home computer.  I just want to be able to use it after I turn it on.  How do I switch back to no password required?

Trump's Oval Office address didn't do much to calm things down. After he delivered it, the Dow futures started tanking, and we are seeing the results of that this morning. Did you notice that the UK was exempted from the travel ban? It is probably just a coincidence that Trump has three resorts in the UK and none in the rest of Europe.

I agree with the "if it ain't broke" approach for the most part. I like Defender because it is free and less intrusive than third party options.

Great.  My wife and I were trying to figure out where to go on vacation.   Scotland!  Thanks for the tip.

US residents can come and go to Europe (except those in lockdown), although only back into 13 cities.

Whether specific flights will be cancelled due to low passengers is another thing, although presumably the airline will still be obliged to get you back somehow.

I'll fly on to Spain and stay with Rob.  I'm sure he'll be delighted to have us.  :)
