The proper way to fight the criminals is to keep everything backed up so when they do steal anything, it doesn't matter. AV software is very important but to beat these guys you need to backup. Besides, if you are stupid enough to open an email attachment from someone you don't know....noone or nothing is going to help you. Your

Ahh it's ok Doc...I am well aware of Petey. I met him in a chatroom a good few months before I came to JU. I still speak to him now and again! I saw what was goin on here, I try and avoid things like that...as I think alot of things are just attention seeking stunts!

Thanks Jay for that comment! I've heard the arguments about this book go back and fourth, and I can't really comment as I haven't read or seen the film, and this is the kind of think I would like to have an opinion on. Your comment was very thoughtful, and informative, and made me want to read the book even more, so thank you.

I agree. It is my favorite show, watched it since it started. I tried watching it, and I liked it at first, and then I missed a few episodes, then I learnt the true meaning of 'lost' when I watched it again! <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Body-Quote-Tab

I am. My wife is too. We have a pet game we play where we try to apply a song to a moment. It is a lot of fun but shows us up for the music geeks we are.Have I sent you any of my songs yet? No you haven't, but you really should! I would love to hear them! I sometimes think of what song would play in t

I've always heard that men have the competitive drive more so than woman, but I completely disagree! Women are far more competitive between eachother then any man I know! I think men would be surprised just how much of a competitive nature women have. They seem to think that we are all sweetness and l

I read an article in the News today that was quite interesting, I thought I would share it here, for those people like me, who aren't exactly completely computer literate. The News here is calling these people Internet Pirates, however I think that is slightly glorifying them, so I shall refer to them as what they are, and that's online criminals. Police her

does not wanting to socialize with a group of people make one a racist? or does it mean that they just have preferences? I guess that depends which group it is, and what reasons you have for doing so. I'm not willing to pass judgements on situations I don't know about.

The funny thing is that my wife is of mixed blood (her father is Anglo-Australian and her mother is Indian). I was concerned my parents would not like her or take our relationship well. But, like your Dad, they accepted her completely because she was part of the family. I find this to by somewhat hypocritical but am glad none the

I'm a chick. Well I was last time I checked. As a chick, I realise that women bitch about other women ALOT. Not all women do it, but a fair few that I know bitch, and moan about other women, and I don't understand why they do it. Men are equally as guilty of this behaviour, I have listened to some men bitch, and they put us women to shame, they have it d

'Lost' has to be one of the best shows to come up in recent years. Sure, there are confusing elements about it, but I must admit, I do like the intrigue. Incidentally, having it on DVD makes no difference whatsoever Honest Lost just flies right over my pretty little head. I don't like not knowing what

Once NBC bought the Bravo network, though, they've been doing exactly what you describe, interviewing 20-somethings with absolutly nothing to say. It is just a vehicle for industry cashcows. I haven't seen that show, but I know shows like it. Unfortunately these kind of shows are in demand. Obviously

First of all I'm regretting using the word homophobic, but as someone said it is due to lack of a better word, so sorry if it annoyed anyone. This is not uncommon many of us have racist and or homophobic parents or grandparents, segregation wasn’t that long ago and open homosexuality rather recent as well. </TAB

Happy Birthday Babe! Ohh Trina, these are my thoughts exactly. In 4 weeks I will also be 23, and I have to admit I am not looking forward to it. Even though in the big picture it is nowhere near old, I can't help but feel that life is flying by far to fast. Ahh well I am sure I will get over it soon, and be worried about hitting 24 before long, haha.

Awww hunny I so feel for you, I really do. First of all, relationships take work, and they aren't always easy, as you well know. I sometimes think that you need to have these rough patches and hard times, to appreciate things when they are good, and that's the key. If you love this man, and he loves you, then that's forever, and this is only one small chapter in your life together. You need to use everything you can to stay in contact with

Sally, you should think about becoming a teacher...that's a great philosophy! Thanks! Teaching is something I have actually considered quite seriously. There are some teachers I have very fond memories of, who really helped me. I'd love to have that influence on someone. <TABLE cellpadding=8

although the process to join the Australian Airforce was probably the longest process I've had to go through (2 1/2 days of questions, prodding, poking, standing, sitting, more questions, really bad food and early, early, early starts). I couldn't handle that. My lack of ability to pay attention to any

if we were dating right now, I highly doubt we'd get married in the sense that the state defines it. I really don't want the government involved in my bedroom. I don't blame with you Gid. How did your wife take that? <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Body

I have the internet to thank for many things. One of the most recent things I can thank it for is opening me up to music that I normally I would of just passed by. Now some people love music. Their world would not be complete without an injection of some kind of music on a daily, hourly basis. I'm not one of these people. I like music, and if I don't listen to mu
