Your safest bet is to get a software firewall (no, MS's firewall does not qualify), and basically block everything that pops up that you yourself don't recognize/initiate. I've found this is the most reliable way to have your OS configuration under your own control in a Windows environment. I believe it may still be possible for MS to even circumvent other firewalls, but they haven't done so yet and I'm pretty sure watch dog groups would jump on them if they did (but on the other hand, getting jumped on by those groups hasn't made MS clean up their act anyway, so....). -Charlie _______________________________________________ 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.
