looked into a bit when i was a kid

You mean you're not one now?

*sighs* By kid I mean 9-12 years of age, in my country once you hit 18 it is consider you are an adult.... So in me saying when I was a kid I am implying the above.....

Thanks... *sighs*

another thing to do to prevent identity theft is to download a program like TrueCrypt and create a secure folder to store all of your personal and sensitive data.

Members may also find these two links refreshing, two accounts of a thief's getting what's good for them.

This fist one the thief stole a computer and used that computers Flickr account to post a picture of himself. ;)

Second one a Berkly professor scares a thief so much he returns the computer.
