China.com wanted to give me password information in a email subject line. That one got deleted on sight. I dont know anything about strange emails containing viruses. <br /> <br />But keeping a short list of family and friends that you know, firewall and antivirus updated and running and anti-spyware programs running as well. (And update your systems) <br /> <br />The rest gets sent into the bulk folder and I never see them. Once in a while a ebayer will end up in it and I have to fish it out. <br /> <br />I run everything 24/7 since last summer and have been lucky thus far. I will be purchasing a hardware firewall to harden my defences. It is our responisbility as good internet users to protect ourselves as much as possible. <br /> <br />You know what? The day the net becomes a problem I would toss this computer out the window and visit trains.com from a public library computer. Let the library deal with the busted systems. <br /> <br />I am not sure where our future holds for us on the internet but I would think that we are in a sort of a war. A war against those that seek to steal our identities, destroy our data and interfere with our digital lives.
