My Mac box has never been hacked but I did get hosed on my linux box. Fortunately they only got to a user account. I never did figure how it happened. After a few days of trying to clear it up I just transfered all my data and mail to a new user account and killed that one. Very annoying...that was back in redhat 7 days. My winXP box is seldom allowed on the net and IE is not used except for those sites that wont allow anything else. So far it only got taken down once....but required a full wipe and reinstall to fix. coldfire -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
