What consequences are there for you if someone gets spyware on their
computer?
My consequence, I get Paid for cleaning it.
 
No I didn't. Quote me.

OK. How's this?
I am. Spreading the fact that mostly only deserving fools get their
computers infected with spyware.

I read this as saying they are deserving of getting infected. Maybe
that's not what you meant. If not, well, I've been known to say
other than I've meant too.
 
MS groups aren't totally open discussions. They are often censored,
especially when Brannugget is on the rag.

Virtually all forums have some degree of censorship sometimes.
 
By accepting that people cannot be motivated to rise above their own
foolishness.

People will continue to be people. Being prepared for stupidity or
war or crime is recognizing that they won't become what I wish they
would become.
How are you protecting yourself from them?

I don't accept e-mail from them. I support software that makes it
more difficult to pass on the results of their foolishness.

First, this discussion applies just as well for all mal-ware.

1. When the people who produce the mal-ware get rewarded, more gets
created. They get more resources and develop ways to get into better
protected systems. I have to spend more time and money protecting
myself. I want to see those bastards in the poorhouse.

2. When the fools spread their mal-ware, more of our business
resources are spent fighting them. When the costs of business rise,
consumers pay.

3. When there is more noise on the Internet, it is more work to sift
out the useful parts. I have better things to do.

4. Some people have reason to have data about people I care about on
computers. I don't want those people compromised by phishers or
others.

In general, I'd rather see the mal-ware producers frustrated. They
won't be as long as there are easy targets.
 
It sounds like you're advocating that newsgroups/forums be eliminated so
that no one with knowledge can be an "enabler". I've found that I gain a
great deal of knowledge and information from these groups. I'd had to see
the groups go. Didn't realize that I was being enabled by reading these
groups. BTW, I don't have any scumware on my computer.

Put down the Magic cards, the 12 sided dice, and the hand lotion over Lord
of the Rings and go get real friends.

Kurt is way to l33t for us.

Ass clown.

People getting what they deserve is not "punishment," in my book. It is
Karma.

So you cannot quote me saying that fools "deserve punishment."

Nope. Open discussion isn't one that is censored.

Defeatist nonsense. People sink down to low expectations.

HUH? How are you protecting yourself from them by enabling them to keep
repeating their ignorant actions?

Again quote me.

The OP is a self-professed "high level pro" and really has no good
excuse for infecting his computer with spyware, and should be smart
enough to find his own answer instead of begging for one.

I suspect the OP is only a pro at getting high.
I've found that I
gain a great deal of knowledge and information from these groups. I'd
had to see the groups go. Didn't realize that I was being
enabled by reading these groups.

If you ask questions that are easily found by googling and instead come
begging for someone to give you the easy answer, then yes you are being
enabled.
BTW, I don't have any scumware on
my computer.

Did I say you did?

No. Spyware and Viruses are different things with different
consequences.

Spyware doesn't try to infect any computer other than the local
computer.
1. When the people who produce the mal-ware get rewarded, more gets
created. They get more resources and develop ways to get into better
protected systems. I have to spend more time and money protecting
myself. I want to see those bastards in the poorhouse.

Yeah, and I want to see the end to corporate welfare, and raising the
capital gains tax on anyone making more than $100,000 dollars. But I'm
not gonna hold my breath.
2. When the fools spread their mal-ware, more of our business
resources are spent fighting them. When the costs of business rise,
consumers pay.

LOL! Most spyware comes from free programs or free web content.
3. When there is more noise on the Internet, it is more work to sift
out the useful parts. I have better things to do.

LOL! Then start petitioning your government to start regulating the
internet. Create a special interest group, and lobby your politicians.
4. Some people have reason to have data about people I care about on
computers. I don't want those people compromised by phishers or
others.

I want world peace, if we are gonna talk about pipe dreams.
In general, I'd rather see the mal-ware producers frustrated. They
won't be as long as there are easy targets.

And there will be easy targets as long as people keep enabling the fools
that infect their computers. They are like the mice that keep pushing
the lever that dispenses the cocaine until they die. If you don't
vitually beat some sense into them, they'll just keep infecting their
computers. Touchy-feely enabling answers just don't work. Negative
reinforcement is necessary.

Sure there is. Giving negative reinforcement to the enablers. ;-)

An idea from an idiot that is totally wrong with his guess at my age?

Yes, they should, and so should you.

Yeah and I'm much funnier too!

Knowledge, from where ever it comes, is a good thing. Sounds like you're
upset because people don't use Google to find an answer rather than come to
the newsgroups/forums. I don't see in the OP's post where he says he's a
high level pro.--

Not when it enables lazy & foolish behavior.

Sh*t-for-brains, I ain't upset at all. I'm just showing spyware
infections are totally preventable and usually caused by fat lazy fools.

If you want to be part of the solution, then you should treat these
fools as fools.

If you want to be part of the problem, then keep help these fools like
they were victims.

The fool only has 3 posts in this thread. Either you are an idiot that
doesn't know how to do a simple search, or you are a lazy piece of sh*t
that didn't try very hard.

Fritz, he's just another pathetic troll who feeds on attention...ANY
kind
of attention. By being argumentative, he can at least get some to
respond,
and remind himself that he's being noticed.
I don't see in the OP's post where he says he's a

Correct. I never stated anywhere that *I* was any high-level pro.
(Anyone can check the posts for themselves.)
This attention-starved loser changed what I wrote into what he
wanted it to say. Even an armchair psychologist could identify
this type: Probably reasonably intelligent, but a total failure
with career, personal relationships, etc... likely doesn't support
himself, and likely ridiculed by everyone he comes in contact with,
as was illustrated here. BTW, except for this clunker, these
Windows groups have some pretty good dudes reading and posting.
Misfits like kunttail are part of what's destroying USENET.
 
Thanks for the reply and I agree. Newsgroups and forums are a great place
to learn. I've found that the real techs in these groups don't mind helping
folks. I've posted some replies that I hope have helped some people with
problems but I've gained much more than I imparted. Cheers!
