Now that's baaad! Thing is, they're probably not allowed to tinker with their own network or hire someone in town to do if for a small fee. Most likely they would have to go through an NHS purchasing system using only £££ approved suppliers £££ and taking forever to get done.

Some unscrupulous people on here have even suggested that a young Administrator of this site is reluctant to purchase expensive pints of Kronenbourg when it's his round. But in fact he is a very generous person and dips his hand in his pocket with great alacrity and frequency. Fair play yeah.

You should be safe dols bach. Just take sensible precautions - firewall, antivirus and spyware killer - think of them as your pack of three. Or use Linux. Don't use the same password for everything, never send bank details in an email or enter them in a form you got to by clicking a link in an email. If it seems too good to be true it usually is, especially if the email comes from Nigeria!
