Please keep me off your fairy tale ping list.

When I've spoken with Microsoft security pros about similar problems in the past, they've referred me to a company policy that says, "If a bad guy has unrestricted physical access to your computer, it's not your computer anymore."

This is so true. It's like saying a vault in a bank isn't secure because a bad guy might go in, find the combination written down somewhere, and then unlock the safe.

Give anyone who halfway knows what they're doing access to any system for any length of time and you're data is gone.

Hey, oh Hallowed BRILLIANT one . . .

You NEVER WERE on my ping list.

You just happened to have written the msg I was replying to. Sorry that taxed you overmuch to figure out.

And if you make another sweeping statement that pushes one of my buttons, I'll be happy to reply again.

I was merely having some fun that I expected some of similar persuasion would enjoy--which they've noted to me privately they have.

It's not a great biggy what you think.

From my perspective, you made a sweeping statement that wasn't true in my perceptions, experiences or perspective. So, I felt somewhat duty bound to respond. And I had good fun doing so.

BTW, I DEPLORE religion.

Relationship is where it's at.

IF it's not relationship, it's not worth bothering about.

Marvel not, bretheren, that the world hate you. Remember, they hated Him (and therefore, the truth) first.

GOOD REMINDER.

THANKS MUCH.

I mostly want to be able to face my Lord knowing I took about every opportunity I could to state the Truth in Love.

. . . to be His heart and hands extended . . .

. . . even at the risk of appearing/being obnoxious to some. . .

As you said . . . certain . . . uhhhh mentalities, perspectives, characters stuck on themselves as their own 'god;' their own fierce exclusive, rigid, legalistic-form-over-substance religion unto themselves--such characters had strong feelings about Him, too.

They couldn't bear the risk and vulnerability of a RELATIONSHIP with him. Selfish pride does that to a soul, a mind, a spirit, a heart--an individual.

But you know all this. Thanks for your kind comment.

I have to admit, they have a point. If you don't have physical security you don't have any security at all...

Most people don't know how vulnerable they are to late-night cleaning people who might be more than they appear to be
