I am rather busy these days and so am doing little on the Linux forums. I read your post since I, like so many others, use Gmail from Linux. You were OT for me. Thanks! I share your concerns about security. I am busy downloading Linux Live Security and Forensics CDs (almost a hobby to me these days - what a LOT to learn!!!), learning to use virus scanners (the state of the art is VERY important here), root kit hunters, SElinux and other policy based tools, sniffers (network security "cameras"), and also learning to "pen test". I would recommend that we all do the same. Thanks Thufir! Carry on, Tod
