Broadband Security FAQ

This whole site is a good one, so take a look around. But this particular page is excellent, and something everyone with broadband Internet connections (DSL, cable modems, etc.) needs to be aware of. This FAQ (list of Frequently Asked Questions) covers security questions that people with broadband might have. "If I am on the net 24 hours a day, will I get hacked?" and "I think my computer is infected or hijacked. What should I do?" and "How do I secure a wireless network?" The answers to the questions are good, detailed, and at a level that most can understand. An excellent resource.
