Just my .02 since I'm trying to find a job in the computer field at the moment.

I was curious as to if a boot CD could be infected with a virus?
This is my situation. Lets say that I have a computer that I believe could be infected with at least 2 different...

Yes it did. I was looking at that site previously and it seems to be one of the few that have an x64 browser. Think I read that it seems to run slower. I dont really like Firefox/Mozilla for some...

I found this topic very interesting as I'm going through the same process right now, trying to choose a language to learn.
Not to put a damper on the people advocating C/C++, but I found a very...

I dont want to sound like an a$$ but not too many people actually care about security nor do they want to. Its kind of like me flying in an airplane. I dont know diddly about airplanes nor do I...

That would be one huge guide :eek:. You can find out what a lot of them do if you do a search for tweaking windows. A few of them list files you can delete to speed up the loading time of windows....

Wow, lots of interesting posts so far, but what I'm wondering from all of this is that why would I need any type of packet filtering, state inspection, etc. type of firewall ( excluding the...

Yea, the Linksys WRT54G v5 runs VxWorks, previous versions run Linux. I got my hands on a WRT54G v4 really easy. Just went down the nearest computer store ( J&R ) and got one. Of course they had...
