Dang...that really is scary!
Perhaps the only answer to hacking is to simply dedicate one computer with a very small Hard drive to nothing but internet surfing and leave it completely open to hackers.
A scrubbing each day of anything left new on the hard drive would prevent use of the HD for storing hacker’s info.
With no infomation and no email, wouldn’t they quickly tire of your computer and leave it alone?
One word: NetBeui.
