Re: [motm] Re: OT: important PC spying / hacking

2004-04-26 by The Old Crow

I run a full hand of guard programs: AVG anti-virus, Spybot S&D, Adaware 
and WinPatrol, which proofs every dll or exec file being installed and 
prompts for approval when it sees something not in its knowledge base.  
I've had trojan programs sneak in as parts of a zipfile, etc., so it is 
not just email that is the risk.  (I still use a shell-mode text mail 
reader, so no attacks survive that way, at least...)
