Windows live update

Is it possible to have a computer without Windows XP updates, and also add, without an antivirus? I wonder why in view of the browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, with extensions such as No Script assumes that reduce the likelihood of entry of bugs in the PC, then inquired about whether it is possible to let my Windows XP is not updated. Do not know what Single download both these slow the computer.

What are is better for me to sign in using online antivirus. He added that given the modest nature of my PC; install the free antivirus like Avast! Home and Personal Antivirus consume many resources and slowing your system. In this regard, and without wishing to be pretentious, I would investigate whether it is valid to choose the alternative to not download the updates and not WinXP install an antivirus on my computer.

Hi

Clear that you can have your computer without updates or antivirus, but if you already have antivirus, firewall and all the updates there is a risk of entering bugs, which can not happen without these assurances? Because of everything.

It can be, no one forces anything on this subject, but is not recommended. What antivirus, there are a lot on this subject in the FAQ; you can find it with the antivirus and browser setting to look in FAQ.

Greetings.

Well, but the windows updates are above the work they do Antispyware? What they actually do the updates? These packages make the system heavier? Its protection work can be replaced with other security tools?

Could change the winXP firewall, like Comodo by another, but would have to learn to configure it.

Antivirus, I think the lighter in resource consumption is NOD32, but to pay.The others you mentioned, especially avast home, to delay starting the system.

According to what I have heard, are "patches" to put the operating system to "plug" holes "where bugs can enter these updates are made to the reports of errors that users send to Microsoft for they analyze and identify the problem and then post the update, to fix the problem. These bug reports are (those that when there is an error window saying a place (explorer.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Send an error report to Microsoft. Or something like that, and below there are two buttons, Send No error report and send) usually we do not we send, right? Collects all those Microsoft error reports identified the problem and released the update to fix the problem...

Everything comes in that little was done formatting my PC with WinXP SP2 again; I had errors in performance and functionality of the operating system. And from there to here, I have not given me click to download Windows updates.

What one note, is that "Add or Remove Programs" when installed continuously updates, it fills and fills those Updates, and I have always wondered if their work would be redundant or repeated by comparing it with other applications for protection. And when I was a faithful discharge of Winxp updates, since they have not missed faults, like the stories of IE.
