how about some active software to counter hackers
Why is it that the IT industry figures that the consumer can just load up his/her pc with a lot of software to keep hackers out and at our expense. Prehaps the IT industry is creating the problem. You know, create a need, then fill it. Great way to make money. How about a more radical proactive software used to find and trash these rogue pc robots. You IT people that respond here should get to work. Don't leave to me and others to pay for filtering, firewalls and all the rest of that crap. I don't trust the web anymore and if I don't recognize the sender of email, it goes in the dumpster. That isn't very efficient is it? Instead of crying about free music, you should working your butts off to stop the computer hackers from wasting your time, my time and billions of dollars. Computers are going to be a dead issue very soon--most stores have replaced their computer sections with hi-fi and tv goods now. The revolution is dead!!!!!!! Note to all you programmers out there--you created this garbage software, so why not fix or find another occupation. I definitely don't bank online !!!
