OK, I got into a real fight with someone this week on requiring a computer be secure before it is attached to a network.
By secure I mean, anti-spyware, anti-virus, up-to-date on patches, and firewall. It got me to thinking, do you think it would be wise, somehow, for ISPs to require anti-virus and anti-spyware to be running on a computer before it's allowed to connect to their system? And how would it be implemented. My thoughts are that if every computer was secure, we would have far less Internet traffic caused by spambots, and would actually give us a much better Internet experience. Any thoughts? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
