What do you >have to hide? An hacker is not going to search thru your files unless >you are really important..lol Heh... I gave up caring if anyone got into my system years back. But I did have a friend with files of software on his system he was developing. He and his company were pretty concerned about security, and worked out some protection. But I've never known much about this sort of thing, and always wondered just whole secure his system was. I just find it intriguing from a hacking perspective just how systems can be compromised, and I guess how easily... and try to pass the info on to people who do have serious security issues. The whole Eschelon thing is pretty intense though... talk about Big Brother keeping an eye on everyone! I'm guessing some of the best hackers out there probably get recruited by companies developing their software.
