Hi Everyone:

I thought it might be useful to have a thread dedicated to notebook computers where everyone could post feedback on what they like and don't like about their particular model and brand.

I'm in the market for a new one, but it's hard to know the relative strengths and weaknesses of the various choices.

If you're interested, please post at Subject 51739

Thanks, Peter

Here's some articles on the subject:

wwltv.com

grc.com

zdnet.com

Click on the "more info" button on the alerts page in ZoneAlarm and it will lead you to more info. Most of the "hits" you receive are not serious attempts at breaking into your computer. Some cable providers ping you on a regular basis to monitor use and you're right about the sites you visit not knowing that you have left the building and are pinging you back.
