Step 11) Don't use IE. While Mozilla, Firebird, NS, Opera, Konquerer (I think there is a W32 port of it), etc are not immune to security flaws, they handle things much better than IE does as far as letting malicious web code run. They are all generally faster and have some other nice features as well. Keep an updated copy of IE around for those sites that are poorly coded or still won't work even when you tell your browser to report itself as IE. But you will have less pop-up add problems and less auto run malicious code issues without IE.
Other than that, it's good advice. I don't like the way it was written, and I wonder how much he paid for his 128 hard drive considering they didn't come standard with them and there weren't too many made. But it is good to see a post with decent information on internet security.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
