Turn off PC to prevent intrusion???
I read somewhere??? that it is very important to turn off your computer when it is not being used. Such action supposedly will help prevent hijackers, etc. from taking over your computer. Such advice brings to mind the 1983 movie 'War Games' in which Matthew Broderick's computer comes to life while he is across the room asleep in his bed and the computer trys to start WWIII. Is there any positive benefit to shutting down that has any effect on foiling highjackers or any other sources of monkey business that could be at least annoying or perhaps harmful?
Just wondering?
