If you're still running a machine that runs Windows XP... well, you should really, really, really think about upgrading to Windows 7 or Windows 8 soon. However, if you're determined to gut it out with Windows XP through at least 2014, Microsoft has thrown you a tiny little piece of a lifeline. Per The Next Web, Microsoft is extending its support for its Windows XP security products through July 14th of 2015, which gives you around a year-and-a-half to dump Windows XP before getting completely swamped with malware. That said, Microsoft is still warning that "the effectiveness of antimalware solutions on out-of-support operating systems is limited," so now is definitely the time to either upgrade your Windows XP machines or buy new computers all together.
