[QUOTE="louisa, post: 40794"] Today, I was on another forum and I signed out of it. My friend, who runs the site, noted that I was stil online as a guest and that he could "ping, echo, and tracert" and also get a direct conncetion. He said that a hacker could get into my computer and wreck things. So, what's going on? Is the Mac as secure as it's advertised? :confused: [/QUOTE]
