Not sure how accurate the report is but it could be just as well to make sure your Antivirus, Firewalls, etc are up to date.
And be careful out there. :)

:o Oh thanks for the heads up there.. Yes my stuff is all loaded & up to date on my computer..
I heard somewhere else about that too- sounds like a pretty bad deal!!
I love linux :). Time to start whacking down viruses, hauling out reports to anti-virus companies, etc.
There's never a bad time to make sure your virus protection is up to date!
So true. I keep mine updated every two weeks out of fear. Sad that we should have to do that.
Mine is updated every 6 hours I'm online, and does a set of scans, some nightly some weekly. Yeah I'm a bit internet paranoid. lol
Still not enough to make me switch to a Mac.
Linux, maybe. ;)
Very true!Quote:

Heh. Linux was originally a server and development platform, but it is now evolving into a extremely, almost infinitely, expandable desktop system. The fact that my desktop, IMO, looks so good it could beat a mac is quite an achievement.Quote:
