| 334234 | 2005-03-24 12:48:00 | That's the big problem - I assume most of us use computers to at least some extentI don't. I get the print version of this forum, and submit my replies via carrier pigeon. :thumbs: | ninja (1671) | ||
| 334235 | 2005-03-24 14:05:00 | I don't. I get the print version of this forum, and submit my replies via carrier pigeon. :thumbs: Good one! :cool: Be wary though, just like computers they can pick up worms and the bird flu virus is going around at the moment too. :D |

| 334236 | 2005-03-27 06:35:00 | One quick question. To all of you in the know. Is "Phone banking" any more secure? I suspect it may be simply because it does not involve the internet in any way (that I know of) yet it certainly has the same convenience and immediacy as internet banking. And while it is certainly possible for anyone's phone line to be tapped, I would have thought it was much less of a risk that the wild and wooly internet. :badpc: |

| 334237 | 2005-03-27 08:24:00 | Good one! :cool: Yeah, I second that - brightened up my evening a bit. I actually meant those of us nationwide, not necessarily using this forum. Anyway, the Sunday documentary is on soon - it'll be interesting to see what they have to say. |

| 334238 | 2005-03-27 08:31:00 | Hopefully they won't waste time trying to educate the public on the difference between a hacker and a cracker . And hopefully they will: Recommend people get their comps serviced (and grab an upgrade while getting that done) And inform them the biggest weakness is MS software and user gullibility . Though I would bet $10 bucks we get some drivel sob story instead . Which reminds me of the last such dribble I saw, That idiot on the Holmes show who sent $40 grand overseas because someone sent him a picture of girl (an ugly girl as well) said they loved him and needed a few thou to move to NZ . A fool and his money indeed . |
