Thread: New Section Idea

  1. #1
    What about including a section on security. It would include securing your computer from hacking/trojans/viruses etc. And go as far as how to protect your identity as best as possible.

    This seems like a good addition to a site dedicated to filesharing. Especially considering what we do and the risks we take.

    We have several members here who know quite a bit about this stuff, and a section devoted to it could really help people out.

    Softwareworld.

    Maybe a pinned topic or subsection.

    A whole new section is unwarranted. Just ask the question in Softwareworld.

    That would be great. I just think we should take it more seriously then random questions and answers within software. A subsection would be nice.

    So there's no interest in having a catagory(or subcatagory) set aside specificaly for security?

    It seams to be pretty relevent to what we do and would be beneficial to have it set aside making it easier on people who need to know but don't really know what to look for.

    Invariably, people who post security-related issues in Internet World are told to post in software world






    ...where they're told that it's an internet-related topic and should try posting in Internet World.






    Maybe less forums is the answer.

    I'll take that as support for a security section (puts blinders on)
