1. Boot Camp running windows is just as vulnerable as a Windows PC. Get anti-virus software, the whole work-up, to ensure that your computer stays a Mac.

2. It probably means that you need it for the install.

3. Giving it a quck glance, a partitioner is included in the install. Basically, when you're installing Boot Camp, you'll get a part of the setup process which is a partitioner:

1. Well i think i found a work round for the first problem i just wont use the net cause most free anti virus software is shit and misses half of what actually matters

2. Id really love someone who actually has installed bootcamp before to answer this since it is a descieding factor in where i can use my legal copy of windows or not.
