Thanks for posting the article, but I can not open the links in the pdf doc. Are they working? My adobe doesn't reconize them as web links. What am i doing wrong?

Succeed2k

Hmm ok, if you look in the downloads section of the forum there is a section specifically for this article. If you post this there, i'll let Timbuck2 know and see if he can reply.

Excellent article. I have made it a practice to have my computer guru check my computer every six months. Costs me 60 bucks but well worth it. I remember one time I thought my computer was secure when I was having problems getting on line and the computer doing funny things, like crashing in the middle of something I was doing, even while working off line.
After he cleaned it up it worked just fine. He found 163 viruses and three trojans in my computer. I couldn't beleive it.
If your computer is not secure you are going to lose everything you have gained.

If you don't have a secure computer you do not have a secure DX account.
