Re: [cobalt-security] RE: 'On my Soap Box'



I was surprised when I got "hacked" two weeks ago. And I agree that make
the "hackers" go somewhere where the doors to the bank are open. I just
bought a VelociRaptor and people are knocking but they can't (so far)
get in. Not impervious, but as close as I can get!
