before and the bank was happy with an invoice from me showing that
the OS had been re-installed, thus removing any trace of previous
malicious programs. This meant that I did not provide a guarantee

ps. It was a Windows PC so by its very nature it was unsafe the
moment it was powered up:-) <br>

I have tried to explain about Linux, but they are stubborn - to be
polite. So I have
<br>
tried ringing various PC Security people, but all said NO to
LInux. I have been using
<br>
Linux since 1994 and UNIX before that. Currently have 2 HP
machines (Desktop and
<br>
laptop) both running Linux Mint 19.2.
<br>
I need help finding someone to satisfy my bank.
