Well Bill/Anonymous, I would advise that you scan every
day at least. You didn't answer my question about browsing
using the Admin account? A firewall at your ISP won't
protect you. I'm not familiar with routers except that I hear
that most of them block all incoming but none outgoing,
and you have to fine tune them to open the ports necessary
for desired outgoing packets. Have you been to a site that
tests your vulnerability? There are several, on is . . .
