I don't doubt that certain governmental organisations have the technology to track anyone they want to. I also believe we are fast approaching the day when censorship of a sort comes to the internet. I'm not happy with either of those events but I don't see there's anything we can do about it.
I read a report recently about a group of people who salvage old pc's from their local dump (in the uk) and sell the pc's on. They said that on 90% of them they found (supposedly) deleted files showing everything from business information relating to specific companies to peoples medical records and financial information. They went on to say that the individuals and companies they contacted in relation to this information were universally shocked as they were convinced that they had securely wiped their HD Drives before disposing of them.
I'm afraid the fact is that we're all being tracked every time we click a mouse or strike a key. I don't like it but it is a fact nevertheless.

It's so obvious that this guy's vocation is in comedy writing!
He should come to the UK. We love that stuff!

Do a search on the forum for djlizard. You will be amazed at how much he knows. Sadly he quit coming here.
Does anybody know why?

Hi everyone
I'm a newbie and would be grateful for some advice please. I run Norton anti-virus software and use Windows firewall on my pc. I also run AdAware and Spybot for spyware and Winclean to clear my index.dat folder. Today I downloaded CCleaner. Have I now got everything covered or should I download other software like HijackThis? Is there a risk of these conflicting? Thanks for your help in advance.
What AntiVirus do you use?
in Windows Security

That's a shame. I'm sure all those people who, like myself, have scant knowledge of the more technical aspects of a pc will agree that you guys are like gold dust to us.
