thanks for replying
From what I have read about using Linux. For Security it is better not to use the Administrator Account for everyday use so I created a separate User account that I wanted to use without a Login Password .
As a single home user and new to Linux I wonder if the security aspect applies more to Corporate System Administrators or is better when connected to the internet to help prevent malware etc being installed.
As a long time computer user I have been security minded by always separating my OS and Data into different partitions so that I can replace a faulty OS without loosing my Data.
