You have to be a literal retard to get a virus to be fair

I've done it and I've been fine...
the bigger problem is such computers are not powerful enough for the modern internet

although, my winxp computer didnt have much to offer for the time anyway

the dying gpu does not like doing 3d

install .exe music files

Your fortune: Godly Luck

install gentoo

>>12481861
Does that even support 32bit systems?

>>12481907
it could but you have to over clock your processor.

>>12481920
you can connect it to the internet without fear nowadays

>>12481975
only if you port scan and close port 80

>>12481907
If you compile it for i686, then yes
also who the fuck is using a 32 bit cpu nowadays

>>12481984
me :)

You'll get more viruses and malware than a $5.00 Thai hooker.

I believe you all because you're giving me the answer I want to hear

the question is the same as asking will linux get a virus if you allow root login with a blank password over ssh

the answer it it depends on your NAT configuration including your ISP's routing (for example, my mobile ISP actually NAT's multiple customers to the same IP)

>>12482613
if you are
-directly connected to the internet with no NAT and no firewall (whatismyip.com shows the same IP as your computer's local IP)
-OR if ports 135, 139 or 445 are forwarded over NAT for some reason

yes it will get network worms probably within 30 minutes or so

it's also possible to block the exploitable services altogether which is in fact what i did when using XP back in 2014 or something

>>12482615
What do you recommend I do then

and how do I do it

also just install frickin linux like a normal person, it's not that scary lol

>>12482624
find TransportBindName in the registry and set it to an empty string. Pretty sure this alone blocks port 445. 135 and 139 need some more work.

But why are you trying to install Windows XP? Can you install Linux instead? What are you trying to achieve?

???????????????????????????????????

I installed Arch Linux and I'm enjoying it a lot!

>>12482630
Bought an XP PC, one of those Dell ones identical to the ones in the CS:S office maps actually, since I'm mentally deficient and thought it'd be cool to have a "cool and quirky retro machine" to play Quake 2 on.

Thanks for the explanation btw <3

unchecked triples on the last page!

you're going to be as safe as your brain will allow. Connecting directly to the net with no router is how you make the meme shit youtube videos with le instant virus. Other than that it's your own knowledge
Go on weird sites and download random files and run them and you'll get what you asked for
