   Ick. You may not be so lucky then, unless Wilfred has a machine with a 2.6.x   
   kernel installed still (most distros are using the 4.4.x stable kernel, or   
   4.9.x (32bit) or 4.12.x (64bit) latest and greatest). You really should   
   upgrade though. Lots of security issues have been fixed since then.   
      
   Regards,
