If you don't think Phishing & SPYWARE/Adware are BIG problems, you will...
The cyber criminals have just gotten out-of-control. The ILLEGAL SPYWARE downloaded to PCs to ILLEGALLY SPAM users 24/7 and the bogus Phishing e-mails are going to cripple e-commerce and the Net if EVERYONE involved doesn't get off their dead AZZES and come up with security measures to MINIMIZE these ILLEGAL Cyber Crimes !!!

Unfortunately the Good Guys have been over-whelmed by the Bad Guys and it's gonna take a good (5) years to implement security measures that actual swing control back to the Good Guys. Everyone who has ignored these cyber crimes until now, especially law enforcement and the legislative branches of government, have no one to blame but themselves.

Cyber crime is gonna displace Terrorism as the #1 priority at the end of the day because the World is now being held hostage by these cyber criminals. And just as with Terrorism, you can't prevent all of it, but you can reduce it to a manageable risk if everyone gets their act together and works toward a common goal. Anything short of 100% cooperation by all involved will allow the Terrorists and Cyber Criminals to rule the World. Apathy and ignorance are the Terrorists and Cyber Criminals best ally.
