Well there's nothing on my PC worth stealing because I don't keep any important information on my PC, yes the Internet is full of bad guys and you got to watch your step when surfing the net.

Apart from here and another forum, very few have my email, therefore I do not get spam whatsoever, not even one a month. I am extremely prudent, and it pays off.

Actually, I am glad that Subsim changed forum software, as phpBB was/is a true pass-through for hackers, thus stealing the email listing for spamming.
