  PC Tools Predicts November 24th could be the worst day for Internet attacks during holiday shopping season

  PC Tools bases prediction on 2007 Spyware Attacks from their global ThreatFire Community and provides 8 tips for safe holiday shopping

  UNITED STATES, San Francisco - November 19, 2008: Leading security software vendor, PC Tools, announced today that Monday, November 24, 2008 is likely to be the most dangerous day of the year for online holiday shopping when it comes to online threats.

  Research conducted using PC Tools’ global ThreatFire community, which now includes over 500,000 computer users, determined that last year the highest incidence of prevented spyware attacks occurred November 19, 2007, just three days before Thanksgiving. If this trend continues, the highest incidence of online attacks is likely to occur this year on Monday, November 24th 2008.

  According to the 2008 eHoliday Study, conducted by Shop.org, a division of the National Retail Federation, “cost-conscious shoppers are making their way online and into stores earlier this year in hopes of stretching their holiday dollars” .

  “PC Tools is releasing this information so consumers can ensure they have the right protection when they shop online this holiday season,” said Michael Greene, PC Tools Vice President of Product Strategy. “One of the best ways to protect yourself is to use security software that features behavioral technology. PC Tools’ security software includes this technology, which gives users an unparalleled level of protection.”

  Greene adds, “While traditional security software protects you from some threats, by adding our behavioral technology you receive better protection from all the latest threats. Behavior Guard is built on the award-winning ThreatFire™ product and is now seamlessly integrated into PC Tools Internet Security 2009 and available for registered users of Spyware Doctor 6 with Anti-Virus. PC Tools also offers the Browser Defender™ toolbar which provides website safety alerts while users browse and search the Internet, including patent pending browser exploit protection for Internet Explorer.

  “If you’re shopping online you must protect yourself with a security product that is not only award-winning and credible, but that also includes behavioral-based technology with the ability to stop the latest threat outbreaks in their tracks,” said Greene.

  PC Tools have provided 8 tips for safe online holiday shopping to educate consumers and assist in reducing their chances of being a victim of online attacks and fraud.

  I get emails from AVG for every update they do - and they have gone absolutely crazy in the past couple of weeks so it seems there are a lot of new variants on the loose at the moment. Keep your antivirus software up to date peeps!

  Do you believe humans can solve the problems they create?

  by gaiagirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  wtbts says that "it does not belong to man who is walking to direct his steps", however the genesis account says that god viewed the humans as having "become like us", in other words, like gods.. .

  further, the story regarding the tower of babel indicates that god confused the language because "there is nothing that they have in mind to do that will be unattainable for them".. .

  so, it would seem that human capabilities rival those of god, and god is worried about it.. .

  Yes, I believe we can do it - the problem is whether we have the desire or will to.

  Plus, it would be far better not to create the problems in the first place!

  My personal view on the tower of Babel myth is that its a story about where different languages came from, put into religious context of the time. If I took an absolute literal understanding, perhaps God confused the languages to hinder/slow down humans from becoming what they have done.

  Quotes of Wisdom. Reading ~Kahlil Gibran

  by Sparkplug in

  he who repeats what he does not understand is no better than an ass that is loaded with books.

  when you long for blessings that you may not name, and when you grieve knowing not the cause, then indeed you are growing with all things that grow, and rising toward your greater self.

  If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were...

  Do you consider yourself a monkey's uncle?

  or, less simply stated (asked, actually): did you get here by creation or evolution?

  i mean you personally.

  there are some lovely books on the subject, but i trust your gut feeling more than i do a certain book-publishing-empire-posing-as-a-religion-that-shall-remain-nameless-but-its-initials-are-xxx&xx and, of late, has been accused of scholastic dishonesty!

  Does Prayer Disprove the Watchtower?

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  frequently, we look for simple, powerful arguments to disprove watchtower nonsense.

  perhaps we have missed the simplest one of all:.

  prayer!.

  Do ex-jws and anti-jw's born-agains hurt their case when they make up thing

  by booker-t in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am the first person to say jw's should be exposed for the flip flops in doctrine, the united nation scandal, the pedophillia cases, and all of the things that they have said and did since charles taze russell started this religion.

  but at the same time it makes me angry when i hear or read some things that ex-jw's and apostates print up about jw's.

  tell the truth and the truth will set you free jesus christ admonished his disciples and i totally agree.

  booker:

  Tell the truth and the truth will set you free Jesus Christ admonished his disciples and I totally agree.

  the real quote:

  To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

  My humble view is that within the context of Jesus' actual words, those who leave the WT have been truly set free from a lie - what they will do with their freedom is immaterial - the point is they have been set free from the lie that held them.

  I also don't know where you've seen ex-JWs tarring all JWs with the same brush - would that be all ex-JWs you're accusing?!

  YOUR DAILY JOURNAL

  by compound complex in

  dear friends,.

  much of what we do on a daily basis is routine and of no particular, earth-shaking importance.

  however, after reviewing letters of family going back to wwii, it is fascinating to read what dad was doing on board the aircraft carrier in the pacific on any old day, what mom was cooking on her ever-steaming range, how i was dealing with the roller coaster of emotion at bethel [mom saved all my letters], how nana wrote that she would not study with the witnesses [per my request] but 'here are some mittens i knitted for you when you canvass new york with your magazines.

  Hi CoCo and anyone else still here!

  Just a life update - now settled in a permanent job, doing lab work which is what I've done for most of my working life Next weekend is my graduation Both my kitties are doing well stillAnd that's about all there is to tell!

  It's been cold and wet here today, not that I was bothered much because I was working. The leaves on the trees are a wonderful mixture of green, gold, red, orange and brown. I don't remember there being so much colour when I was younger - the leaves stay on the trees for longer these days but I love it! One of the nicer aspects of climate change! Mother Shipton certainly got her prophecy right that we "wouldn't know the seasons except for the leaves on the trees"...

  Have a great rest of the weekend
