some people i know are so fed up of the state of internet security ,viruses,trojans,spyware,spam etc that they are actively considering disconnecting their main systems from the internet altogether and only using a dedicated machine for access

shame that security has got so bad where people are now retreating from public networks, if thats now in 2004 what's it gonna be like in 10-15-20 years from now ? i shudder to think
