818049 2009-10-08 06:01:00 Just checked my hotmail account, Had it since 2000, The password was "password", lmfao, I figured if someone "hacked" it they could have it.Damn things are free, Just get another. Metla (12)
818050 2009-10-08 06:33:00 The problem does not always lie with Windows, there are idiots making it and idiots using it, the filling of the sandwich just has protective colouration.The smarts in the system are fairly evenly spread between those trying to break in and those tossing them out. The worry with using any MS security system is that you are letting a layer of idiots into the defending team, which does not bode well for the future. R2x1 (4628)
818051 2009-10-08 07:08:00 My password has been the same for the last 5 or so years, I don't ever plan on changin it. Who cares if people read my emails, or post on forums, or empty my bank account. None of its worth anything lol hueybot3000 (3646)

You shouldn't go around telling people that!

818053 2009-10-08 07:17:00 There is nothing I use online that could really harm me, except bank. But good look figuring out my password! Its not password, or 123456 but may contain one of more characters from those 2 hueybot3000 (3646)
818054 2009-10-08 07:20:00 Perhaps we should try educating the users which no doubt would result in a drop in income for computer techs. Sweep (90)

And this leads to the new antivirus from MS??? Made by idiots.... So do you trust it? :) I think i will stay with Avast for now until it has proven it self

818057 2009-10-08 21:37:00 I'll find what was phishing?
I mean I had a stupid user not one with a hacked password .

With a keylogger installed . And yes I checked all it's entries and files and they were all there .

Lucky for her she didn't use internet banking .

She's stupid because she had "spells" but no actual protection .
My point is users are stupid .

I tell peoepla ll the time about the various bad things that can happen on the net to them and I always get similar comments - Oh I don't have anything important/no money/don't care if people read/take stuff .
