This because? You just jumped in without having a clue what we were talking about, we are talking about softwares here, not a substance that makes you behave the way you just did :-)

One or more ports on this system are operating in FULL STEALTH MODE! Standard Internet behavior requires port connection attempts to be answered with a success or refusal response. Therefore, only an attempt to connect to a nonexistent computer results in no response of either kind. But YOUR computer has DELIBERATELY CHOSEN NOT TO RESPOND (that's very cool!) which represents advanced computer and port stealthing capabilities. A machine configured in this fashion is well hardened to Internet NetBIOS attack and intrusion.
Unable to connect with NetBIOS to your computer.
All attempts to get any information from your computer have FAILED. (This is very uncommon for a Windows networking-based PC.) Relative to vulnerabilities from Windows networking, this computer appears to be VERY SECURE since it is NOT exposing ANY of its internal NetBIOS networking protocol over the Internet

Who said anything about nicking software? Hmmmm.....people borrow softwares to install don't they :-) On a different note, are the prices of cds and softwares justified, even for the average joe on the street?

Re: Spyware.
You must have got me mixed up with someone else, or got your knickers in a twist somehow. We were talking about softwares, and ways to increase security on your puter.
I didn't see ABCD actually mentioning anything about what i said, until you came along. What i know about computers? You will never know, lets keep it like that.

You were treating old ABCD a bit nasty, but he probably knows more about computers than you do or ever will!!!

So what do you know about computers?
Just so that I'm reminded how glad I am not to be a geek, you understand.
