Can anyone tell me why all of my accounts get locked out
while I am using my pc? This normally happens when using
the connected via broadband.
 
Possibly a hacker is trying to access your computer via file and print
sharing ports if you do not have a firewall to obtain user names and trying
to use them to access your computer. Go to http://scan.sygatetech.com/ to
check for basic vulnerability to untrusted networks. There are more than a
few free firewalls for personal use, but a hardware device connectedto the
cale/dsl modem would probably be easier to set up and more reliable. ---
