What everyone needs to know

I'm going to have to cogitate on the anatomical implications of "anal
schmuck" and all of the contortionist images it conjures up but I was a bit
surprised at how long it took for someone to mention she ought to fix her
clock as well!<VBG>
 
Particularly when she says that you have been hacked if your clock
changes.....grin. Anal? Never. Schmuck? Impossible (female here).

Cheers....Figgs
 
If your computer is a on a Windows Platform you need to disable the
Services that Windows leaves opens, for starters. Most home users
aren't using a Virtual Private Network, Mail Server, FTP Server, TCP
Server and so on. You also need to install a Firewall, whether it be
software or hardware oriented ONLY before you put your computer on the
Internet. Trojan Horses disable anti-virus and firewalls. An
anti-virus application will secure your computer to "some" degree, but
NOT unless you can secure your e-mail, browser and internet settings and

applications. Without the above security, the malicious hackers are
already abusing your computers to take down Networks, Servers, trade
drugs, guns, bo*bs, and so on.
This is only a small list of areas which deal with security, malware,
backdoors, trojan horses and more.

Well, yes, according to me, based on the experience of being active in
groups where she occasionally crossposts, do you see any indications I
meant otherwise ? (should've added an IMO I suppose)
Warning people to protect themselves from MS's decades of
neglecting to produce secure code, isn't trolling, or the ramblings of a
lunatic, just common sense.

Doing so with scaremongering techniques and posting in non-relevant

What a big man you are, Dick!

Thank you, it is more difficult than simply replying "u a big dumfuk"
and adding juvenile barbs, but I find it's worth it in the long run.

"Soft-trolls", people who start off saying almost-reasonable sounding
stuff, oddly enough have a shorter fuse than most people; it's usually
not more than a few posts in a thread before they start foaming at the
mouth, making trivial insults, etc. I'm not meaning to imply that your
"Tracker" is one.

And I'm glad you got a kick out of my "boobs" joke; I thought it was a
great one-liner.

I was just pointing out that your label of troll is highly subjective.

What "scaremongering?" I saw nothing nothing in the OP that fit's that

OK. I understand what you mean now. How ever one sentence doesn't make all

ROFL!! After flipping thru the totally boring *nyah nyah* posts on
this......I can't believe that there are idiots out there that don't know
who Debbie/Trackers/FerretFace is.......she is a total nutbar who drives
everyone on security and antivirus ng's nuts!! She also calls herself
"Beef's Old Lady" (barf......there's a horrible picture!!)

Shaking my head at the dolts who half believe her. Give your heads a shake,
dolts.

Grinning to myself coz it looks like the hackers got to her
computer......her clock is wrong and she *claims* that is a big sign you
have been hacked.......bwa ha ha!!

What floors me is that so many people give her exactly what she wants, gobs
of replies on how dumb and stupid she is. Every reply just makes her smile
bigger, and encourages her to keep doing it. Just like those folks on the
a.c.a.c and other ng's do every time she posts a inane message there. If
memory serves me well, she's been there at least twice in the past 3-4 days,
and each time there were gobs of replies there too. If everyone just
ignored the dweeb, with merely a posted warning by one of the regulars to
warn those who don't know her, she'd have no one but 'ol beefy baby to stoke
her fractured ego, and it would save a lot of needless time, and in some
cases, money spent downloading all that useless garbage for those still on
dialup. They should have a warning on the ng's for her like they do at
certain areas of the Zoo's. 'Please don't feed the animals. Especially,
the Yaks and Asses.'

...what's a "bo*b" ?

I was thinking so*ething along the line of 'mune', or even 'chichi'. Check
with a good Japanese-English dictionary.

(Probably *ore *undane than that, though.)
 
With everything that's going on in the world today I believe Tracker was
very smart using the asterisk in lieu of the letter that completes the word.
Otherwise, his door may get kicked in at any moment and he may be lying on
the floor face down with a dozen well armed guys bending his arms clear
above his head while cuffing him. And for what, just trying to help folks
out by sharing information that many of us are very glad to read and apply
where appropriate......thanks Tracker.

"He" is a 'she'. The F.B.I. isn't so blind as to *iss things like *issing
'*s'. Her advice it like an old, analog clock which is not running; right
twice a day, but you don't know when it is right.

Tracker is not a Troll in the same sense as somebody who knows that they are
Trolling; but her posts tend to have the same effect as if she was an
intentional Troll.

That was actually one of her saner posts. When she starts telling people
what steps to take to find malware, she can be downright dangerous.
 
See her post in windowsme.general this morning for proof of this statement.
A brief summary of this morning's pearl of wisdom: Hackers always put their
code in the Windows folder using hidden files and folders, and if you don't
know how to show hidden files and folders this is valuable information for a
hacker to know about you.

Pure unadulterated paranoia, and as false as a three-dollar bill.

Thank you. That is a very reasonable explanation. I don't put much stock
when someone calls someone something without a reasonable explanation as to
why. I did notice some dubious info in Tracker's OP, but I did seem to me
that his/her/it's heart was in the right place with this post.

I see. That explains a lot. Thanks again for taking the time to explain
you opinion about Tracker.
