Keeping it completely separate from the internet is by far the safest
way for her to proceed, and to use another PC (eg one of those 150 quid
Mandrake Linux units from Dabs or similar) with a s/h monitor or a full
system from a local PC store, so she can use one online, and keep those
customer details safe. I trust that she has adequate backup facilities
and is either registered to hold the details, or falls into one of the
exempt categories. Peter M.
