You have to hand it to Apple. They really have this media stuff sussed. They are now ahead of Real in media casting. Our own ABC still only distributes Microsoft's Media Player format and Real's. Are they nuts?

PC protection made easy.

Slate: Virus-proof your PC in 20 minutes, for free

Figuring out how to secure your PC from these threats can be daunting even for serious gear-heads. Magazine articles like "78 Ways To Bulletproof Your PC" are 75 more than you should have to deal with. The costs add up fast, too ... it's easy to spend more than $100 on second-rate software and still get infected.

So I whittled the world of options down to three free steps that, on most PCs, can be done in less than 20 minutes. Do all three, and you'll be protected against the most common infections and still be left with time and money for lunch.

Thanks to blog buddy Dave Winer for admitting he zapped himself with spyware, and then detailing what a mess it was to clean up. That made it easy for me to pitch the issue as one that affects tech-savvy Slate readers, not just newbies and novices. Is anyone really a newbie anymore?
