[Rhodes22-list] Hackers

[lcrowther]

Slim,

Don't know about the Mac problem but I also have a cable connection that is
on all the time, I use Ad Aware and ZoneAlarm on Windows ME and they seem to
do the job for me.  I consider my primary protection to be ZoneAlarm.  The
best part is they are both FREE.
