one more thing to add to too fast?

what would you think if said person also told you not to run any antivirus software on said system and told you to run a scan about once a month from the antivirus CD. and also told you that you do not need to do any updates because the system has 98 plus on it and does not need to be updated? as you can tell this is really bothering me and i have my suspicions about whether they are trying to (compromise?) the network that the PC is on …call me paranoid but don’t call me werid..(not another id 10 t call)
