Tony,
I think you misunderstand my message. I am not paranoid, I am reacting to a thought about a potential threat I had not thought of before. As you may have noticed, I have read and responded to thousands of posts from people all over the board in good faith as a trusting soul for years. Love this community.
However, over Christmas one of the largest publications in the country was shut down and unable to print for the first time in its history because someone clicked on an innocent looking link. Ransomware immediately infected all of the servers and the printing press shut down. Everyone's computers were infected.
SO, not as a paranoid person, just as normal thinking person, I think I had a realization when Herb spotted what was clearly a threat. It has nothing to do with being suspicious one of one's Internet neighbor on the PG Forums.
It just made me realize for the first time in five years that I NEED to be careful.
And I think THAT is sad.
Also, not knowing how servers like this work, I was just asking if safeguards COULD be put into place because I don't know. I was just asking, which is what I always do when I don't know the answer to something. I ask.
Hope that makes sense.
