This is an excerpt from Fred Lange's (of Winmag.com) email newsletter.  Click on
the link at the bottom to get very useful information on securing your PC from
outside (net) hackers.

1) Secure your PC from Hack Attacks---  for Free!

In my WinMag column this week, I'll debunk these four myths of online
security:

    Myth #1: "I'm not on a network, so my PC is safe."
    Myth #2: "I just use Dial-Up connections, so my PC is safe."
    Myth #3: "I use an anti-virus app, so my PC is safe."
    Myth #4: "I use a firewall, so my PC is safe."

I'll tell you why these statements are false, and then go on to show
you how you can vastly improve your online security in just minutes,
using tools you already have, and for free!

Then join the discussion! WinMag readers are famous for being both
knowledgeable and helpful--- If you have questions about networking,
ask them there, and I or someone else will try to help. Plus, share
your tips, tricks, and suggestions for making your PC more secure.
