Re: man in the middle

Do you, by any chance, have a Hewlett Packard printer?

It is really as I said, there is no security. If this is all microsoft has
as
an answer. Watch your active x when downloading free programs.... big deal
!
How about wuacle.exe which is the windows update program being modified
right
from a clean format and install,after your done with the instalation cd.
You
need the active x to run that and you certainly need the updates.

How about including the 92 security patches in new os instalation cds so
you
don't have to go on-line to get them as a solution instead.

I'd buy a mac if I was certain that it couldn't also be dns cache
poisoning.

To hell with it don't bother replying.

4 firwalls/antivirus products in one month. I've come the the
conclusion
that there is no security on the internet beyond unplugging your
machines
permanently. I reformated 3 computors 5 times, reinstalled the
windows
xp
sp2 and updated, and even went so far as to change the mac addresses on
the
network cards. Within days windows system security settings,and product
firewalls would change and it would be downhill from there,not counting
the
money spent.

In conclusion I've had to cancel my personal isp and email account,what
was
happening was that I would get these trial versions of security
software
both downloaded and cds, like them, buy them using https and then they
would send me email confirmation and a link to download the full
versions.

Someone had cracked my email and was sending me to spoofed websites. It
didn't matter how often I would reformat and reinstal the os after I
found
this out and NOT use the email.

My question is how is this possible that this hacker could still track
me?
