Thanks for the article. IMO, it brings up some excellent ideas for protecting your PC.

FWIW, I am running one of the firewall products listed in the article (BlackIce Defender) and I have discovered that my PC gets approximately 6-12 unsuccessful hacks per day. Also, I have installed a cookie crusher program and I was shocked to find it rejecting 150-200 cookies per day. -ng-

Some good protection proggies if anyone's interested...
