Hi

1st question. Is it ok to use XP after Microsoft stops support. What's the danger, if any. How do I keep it safe. Will virus and malware protection be enough. Some computer experts say it's ok to keep using it for at least a few years.

If I update the OS, it will be to Windows 7 Pro with a clean install. I will need to backup my important stuff. As far as FF goes, I will have to re-install it so how do I save all my FF settings, bookmarks etc and re-install them.

Thanks

Steve
