1. use 32 bits vm's though run x64 linux host 4gb ram. , work fine, unless have areason use x64 such performance think irrelevant in vm example

2. depends how host performs, give mine 512 or upwards, windows & vm running on ubuntu host has 768mb , runs fine ( know have things other way around use linux host.

3. chacnce of infection of type linux vm coming down windows machine unlikely. vm can infect host in circumstance more other way around in windows vm linux host again unlikely, virus .exe not effect linux not use .exe.

safe browsing use private browsing feature in browser, run av if feel need avg, avast, clam av of available linux, opinion 50/50 on whether need linux build however

have fun
