My friend
thinks Macs are the best and when I recommended he get ZA or some other
type of firewall/warning system make for a Mac, he said show me why I
need a firewall.  I failed.  He really does not need a firewall.


I think it important to mention here that Windows and MS software in general
are a much more attractive target for hacking, cracking, etc. due to simple
logistics. To move your superbly written, crafty little worm around the world
via the internet you use the most prevalent means. This is MS products. Why
target only 3-5% of the connected computers? Why drive a Yugo when you can
drive the Caddy for free?

I'm also feeling a bit left out. I've not received a single copy of the
SirCam, Code Red, or any virus in months. Danged slow AOL! Grrrrr...... not
really.
Even tho I'm using the lecherous Windows OS and even more pathetic AOL, I'm
not affected by these worms and virii.

Oh well.... one never knows,
Sterling
