No need to fret over demise of Windows XP

Everyone seems alarmed that, as of April 8, Microsoft no longer will provide technical support for Windows XP. They shouldn't be. The company has been trying
to kill off its old but still widely used operating system for several years now.
 Consider, for example, that since 2011, updated versions of Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser have not worked on Windows XP. And if you're running XP on
your computer, you won't be able to run the latest versions of Microsoft Office.
Interestingly, other browsers, including Firefox and Chrome, work fine with XP, as do free office software such as OpenOffice and LibreOffice.
 The real problem (for Microsoft) is not that Windows XP is three generations old, having been succeeded by Vista, Windows 7 and now Windows 8. It's that
despite the company's best efforts to bump it off, XP is still the OS on nearly one-third of all Windows computers. And the refusal of users to abandon it is
hurting sales of Windows 8.
 In pulling the plug on Windows XP, Microsoft strongly implied that users should either upgrade to Windows 8 or buy a new computer (with Windows 8 on it).
The company said that sticking with XP after technical support is withdrawn could leave computers vulnerable to security risks and viruses, and that users
can expect to encounter more apps and devices that won't work with XP.
 I've received a lot of e-mail from panicked XP users - to whom I say, relax. You don't need Microsoft for technical support. You can protect your computer
with a good antivirus program, like the free versions of Ad-Aware, Avast and AVG. And don't worry about apps and devices. Most software is available now in
the cloud - making it compatible with any operating system - and most printers, routers and other devices you're likely to need will work with XP.
 Q: Lately, a majority of the posts on my Facebook news feed come from just a few people. That wouldn't be so bad except that these are "friends" I knew
years ago and no longer stay in touch with, and the stuff they put online is silly, boring, or both. I don't want to "unfriend" them, but at the same time I
don't want their musings taking over my account. Is their a way to hide all their comments?
