Erik, re: "IMO, if you have computers with dedicated net connections they need to be protected."

I have a cable modem. May I ask, what do I need to be protected from? I will gladly fork over the 39.95, just need to know why.

BTW, looking for a ball while playing golf today, I walked within about 5 feet of a 6 foot copperhead (snake). I would also gladly pay 39.95 not to do THAT again <g>.

Thanks in advance for you response.

John

IMO, if you have computers with dedicated net connections they need to be protected.

Here's a site which will probe your computer for you for security flaws:

grc.com

Click on the Shields Up! link. This is not an endorsement of their product as I know nothing about it, but I did have their software probe my system a couple of months back.
