mjk's guide to computers and security!

[mjk]

OK I added a bunch of new stuff, I feel that it's worthy of being called version 1.0. Check it out.

Securityfocus.com and eeye.com would be good additions... Would have mentioned them earlier, but didn't think of them :P

[mjk]

eeye.com added (I already had securityfocus)

I also ditched the version thing, now it just says when it was last updated.

If you wish to see a certain category added to the list just say so. Your wish is my command

Good resource you put together MJK. One suggestion might be to remove the blank lines between the entries to reduce the scrolling you have to do.

I have a handfull that I didn't see on the site that others might find usefull...

MJK and All,

That's great stuff. We can only hope that at least some of the readers will link up to the sights and become more informed and better prepared when they are surfing on the net. I bet we could drastically reduce the impact of virus's etc., if they did! Thanks for the hard work compiling the lists. I will keep them bookmarked for any threads that they could be used in.

cheers.
