You do hear about the rampant IP piracy in China, and that govt unwillingness to stop it (if not outright support it)

Tell me about it! Being in IT, I get "security alert" emails at work at least once a day describing new vulnerabilities and hack attempts. Sorta makes you want to unplug from the net sometimes!

Oh boy are you right about that BG. One of our son's PC's locked up last week. Once we got into it and began to check what was wrong we discovered that he had over 30 (Trojen key logger) viruses from watching videos on UTube. We have a firewalled router, and protected modem, plus Gov supplied virus protection and none of them stops them if they really want into your system. We have now setup restrictions on his PC, but anymore problems will result in disconnection for him. I am pretty careful but even my PC gets hit from time to time regardless of what protections you have installed. I update once a week, do registry optomizer, and try to keep things clean, but you just never know whats going to happen.
