The folks paranoid about hackers getting onto their computer amuse me. I'm behind a hardware firewall in my router, secured with WPA2 encryption. The machines that connect to the router all have software firewalls, because several of them travel. My home network is fairly carefully locked down.

The only way anyone gets at what's on my machine is to sit down in front of it. If they can do that, I have far bigger problems than computer security.
