The internet works by sending information to other systems and getting information back. As such, you will never have perfect security. At best you can send to systems not known in protocols not recognized via data not understood.

vmware is very big business. They care about their own money and hence have licenses, but are unlikely to have gaping backdoors.

win8 doesn't have your personal information unless you're silly enough to give it to it. They may have scammed lots of people into believing it needs an MSN account and internet access to run, but that's just not true.

NAME
protocols - protocol name database SYNOPSIS
/etc/inet/protocols /etc/protocols DESCRIPTION
The protocols file is a local source of information regarding the known protocols used in the DARPA Internet. The protocols file can be used in conjunction with or instead of other protocols sources, including the NIS maps ``protcols.byname'' and "protocols.bynumber" and the NIS+ table ``protocols''. Programs use the getprotobyname(3SOCKET) routine to access this information. The protocols file has one line for each protocol. The line has the following format: official-protocol-name protocol-number aliases Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or <TAB> characters. A `#' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file. Protocol names may contain any printable character other than a field delimiter, <NEWLINE>, or comment character. EXAMPLES
Example 1: A Sample Database The following is a sample database: # # Internet (IP) protocols # ip 0 IP # internet protocol, pseudo protocol number icmp 1 ICMP # internet control message protocol ggp 3 GGP # gateway-gateway protocol tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol egp 8 EGP # exterior gateway protocol pup 12 PUP # PARC universal packet protocol udp 17 UDP # user datagram protocol # # Internet (IPv6) extension headers # hopopt 0 HOPOPT # Hop-by-hop options for IPv6 ipv6 41 IPv6 # IPv6 in IP encapsulation ipv6-route 43 IPv6-Route # Routing header for IPv6 ipv6-frag 44 IPv6-Frag # Fragment header for IPv6 esp 50 ESP # Encap Security Payload for IPv6 ah 51 AH # Authentication Header for IPv6 ipv6-icmp 58 IPv6-ICMP # IPv6 internet control message protocol ipv6-nonxt 59 IPv6-NoNxt # No next header extension header for IPv6 ipv6-opts 60 IPv6-Opts # Destination Options for IPv6 FILES
