Call it what you like. If I get compromised, then I'm going to reload my system, anyway. I don't care how much of it got toasted along the way, and it's probably too much effort to go picking around in the rubble. I do regular backups, and I'll be able to get my data back from backup, anyway. The system areas I'm not going to try to salvage. I have a desktop, not a bunch of credit card numbers. I keep no information on my machine, such as bank account numbers, which might be consequential if someone got access to them. I don't care if I lose one day's e-mail, or even a week's loss. As often as I get the feeling that if I lost data I might miss it, I do a backup. In fact, I feel one coming on Real Soon Now.
