A long overdue thanks
I just wanted to extend a big thanks to AO and a many of its members. Since I registered here over a year and a half ago, I've gained an incredible amount of knowledge thats not only helped me secure my system but, also helped secure the network at my company(where I work part-time) and my family's systems and co-worker's systems and the list goes on and on.
Funny thing is, I wasn't even hired as IT for my part-time night work. Just from what I learned here, I was able to (over time) demonstrate an excellent ability to maintain/secure their network. So now instead of doing trivial tasks, they got me maintaining the network, something I've always enjoyed doing.
Even at my full time job (civil engineer) which has nothing to do with computers at all, I'm constantly finding myself aiding other co-workers secure their systems. Trust me, it's a great feeling to be depended on and trusted like that.
Before I came here, I had no such knowledge and I was actually a complete putz when it came to computer security. Now, 200 something posts later, I'm still a putz but at least I know that a port isn't only where a ship docks :D
Anyways, I'm rambling. I'll get to the point. Thanks AO and members for all the help you've given me. It's greatly appreciated!
