I don't keep stuff like that "laying around" on my computer. The
best security measure you can take is to keep sensitive stuff off-line
on a CD or something. It is cheaper getting a CD burner and some good
anti virus software than spending time having "uncle software" slow
down all day asking if you want to do this, make sure you don't do
that and so on in addition to firewalls etc.

Btw, if you like I can send you some of my love letters. If you've seen one
you have seen them all anyway.. ;)

True, and I have done so.
