Question on XP mode in windows 7.
I have a question about XP mode in windows 7.
I am currently running xp mode converted into vmware player.
When xp ends support, I understand xp will no longer get security updates.
My question is when xp stops getting updates will my windows 7 pro be at risk?
I know its a virtual machine, and if any problems arise I could always restore the virtual machines snapshot but I am just wondering if a threat is likely or easily exploited onto the host should the rare chance the xp vm gets infected. (I will not be browsing the internet on it, most likely will disable the vm network adapter after updates are complete in 2014)
Thank you.
