[QUOTE="Freud2004, post: 945422, member: 88121"] [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]The obvious answer ill be old software is must less safe. But it doesn't work like that, depends on the developer of the software[/COLOR]. Some software developers concentrated in resolving bugs and security issues other just in the bugs of their software, so it's not a linear thing. So, my recommendations its update the software if you can, but if some old software its real necessary why not. Install a good security solution, it will help to mitigate the lack of updates of some software. For example, until a month ago I use Rocketdock, it's a software that don't have support since 2007, but I really like that dock now I have replaced for nexus dock. [/QUOTE]
