Just because you machine dosen't have specific data that is of interest to a profesional, don't assume he dosen't care about breaking into it. It can still be used as a base of operations for scanning, and attacking. Also it may be that your home machine has a VPN to work, and as such is a conduit into your work. -- | Bryan Andersen | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://softail.visi.com | | Buzzwords are like annoying little flies that deserve to be swatted. | | -Bryan Andersen |
