   Only one thing is holding me back from moving to Ubuntu - and that is    
   that I want to keep using my email client, Turnpike.   
   I've never found anything better in the twelve years I've been using    
   Turnpike   
   and it won't run under WINE because it's a Windows namespace shell    
   extension - i.e. an extension of Windows Explorer.   
      
   Would it be possible to run a fairly stripped down XP in a virtual    
   machine?   
      
   Which would be the best virtualisation software for that?   
      
   Would I still need all the security software for XP when it is running    
   within the virtual machine?   
   (Anti-virus, anti-trojan, etc.)
