I am a MAC and freeBSD user and feel safer on that or any linux distro than I do on Windows. Today I found my IP changed in XP to 169.254.x.x and this is behind a wifi so the address was local and non-routable 10.x.x.x to the router. Not sure how that could happen. I would like some answers and hope you can help me to at least get the basics. Whoiis tells me this 169 addres belongs to IANA in CA but this is already a dead end. I also have no way of knowing what if anything an intruder did to my XP system. Any specific help would be much appreciated. Thanks! Regards, Nick in NYC Hi,

Came accross "Want to know how to really hack?" while checking out Java (J2SE..?). Didn't find what I was looking for, but sure scared me enough to cut up my credit cards and keep my money under the mattress. Know it won't do any good, though. Even if I'm not online, my info is still out there. Really scary stuff. 2 home computers virused thru use of Adobe name…managed to contain and quarantine (wanna see my crossed fingers?).
