Re: Good Passwords

So what your telling us is that, even if we have programs on our computer to protect us, there not worth the money spent? We're not really protected?

Being a computer guru myself I had taken some hacking classes before. Not or mal practice but for work and other things. My bestfriend is also an anti hacker for the us air force, you talk about some crazy stuff he does. Anyways, you wouldn't believe how easy it is to get everything off ur computer. If you got wireless, they can just drive by and and get what they want using certain programs, like the old Cain and abel. I always tell people to make sure that u reset cookies and set ur browser to wipe ur Internet history etc every-time u close it. Also, if you have credit cards, important info etc, on ur computer, and u have to store them, put it all on a external hard drive that can be unplugged when not in use. Even tho your computer is not on Internet doesn't mean they can't get in and open what they want. Just some two cents. Back in my college days I saved a lot of money hacking windows op and adobe for people and art majors, and I still have ultimate 7 on my computer cause of it lol
