I wish to inform you for those of you that trust all gov opinions and town decisions,
many of these people are even more clueless than you and may even know less.

I have repaired a computer for a town that they were using, had customer records and all.
No antivirus what so ever installed. No firewall, no nothing. I basically had to educate them
because they were a town, and they should have known better. They were mistakenly thinking
that they can tell if they have a virus, just don't click when it asks. Viruses these days are automated, and spyware install behind your back via silent installs. Winrar can make silent installers such as this. I located over 80 viruses on their pc. It is a wonder that some password stealer or hidden keylogger trojan did not attach to this pc. I had to run the right click and scan C: for viruses because it was so infected, that it would not allow the antivirus program to run directly through double clicking the icon for it at first.

So if you trust the gov with your privacy, with all your needs, be concerned. I bet you there are far more than one of these towns and cities, or even government offices using infected pc's.

If it can happen to one town, why can't it happen higher up also? I was amazed that these people who are supposed to be "in the know" simply are so unprepared for the simplest things should disaster occur.
