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,
Nick
