Default Trojan Horse is More Damaging then a Virus


http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/security/trojan.html

Some of you people might want to check out this website because if your
on a Windows Platform and you didn't disable the Windows Services which
are left open by Microsoft and then installed a Firewall, your computer
has a high risk of hosting a Trojan Horse and a Backdoor.

"..because if your on a..." - Your=You're (contraction for you are).

Good advice on the page, but it doesn't substantiate your claim(s). You and
Steve Gibson would go great together! FUD..

I doubt that.



GENERAL COMPUTER HEALTH WARNING
-------------------------------

Any advice from a poster using the word 'tracker' may contain
dangerous nonsense and should be immediately deleted from your
computer.

Do NOT contact this person by email

Do NOT feed the Trolls, one warning is enough, further messages
only reinforce the desire for attention that provides motivation.

You typed 'trojan horse' into Google and pasted one of the first links you
saw into your poast.

That pretty much covers 99.99% of all your 'output' spammer.
