Can't remember who recommended Windows Defender. Well, I won't bother if you think it is useless. Yes, I'm using XP. I have always disabled hibernation on my computers because I hate it, too, but the last time was so long ago, I had forgotten how, thanks.
I'm now fussing with all the Acer security settings, fingerprint access, etc. A bit confusing. Decided to put that aside for a time when I have nothing better to do, LOL.
