ElizabethK - Microsoft announced that they would release a patch for the Heartbleed "bug" so it is quite likely that. |

You will not (in all probability) get XP updates. Microsoft has ceased to issue them (apart from as mentioned above). |

I am merely stating facts - XP licenses ceased to be sold about six years ago. After all, it was released way way back in 2001 so in computing terms is a positive dinosaur. |

well enjoy yourself - I see you've reported me - I won't bother doing the same to you even though your postings were nasty |

For starters why assume I have reported you - maybe someone else did because they thought what you said could possibly have contravened T&Cs. |
