powderman426, many people on this forum don't know the difference between a downloaded file and a drive partition. Asking them to install and run Linux, even with the user-friendly distros available today, is unrealistic.
I can appreciate your thoughts on the matter, but installing a new operating system is much easier than trying to deal with anti-malware or anti-virus installation or use especially when having to make modifications to the registry which is often necessary after being infected. If anyone has questions about how to make the transition, I will be happy to help where I can, and point them to a more knoweledgable source when I can't. To continually deal with having to cleanup your system everytime you get hit is much harder than correcting the problem at the source.:B
