What next? Hackers being able to steal your brand spanking new P4 Prescotts?

Never owned a 'web cam' and never will. Bad enough that 'Aunt Martha' should see my ugly mug sittin' here in my skivvies,let alone broadcast it to the WWW! :D

Of all the junk commercials on TV these days,now I see one from my internet broadband provider 'Comcr*p', offering a 'free' 6 month's lease on their modem and a 'free' WEB CAM!!!:p

Oh yeah,,gon'na jump right on 'that' one! "NOT"...:eek: :rolleyes:
