The problem is it's 2006, not 1996. In a globally connected world it's not
just putting *your* computer at risk anymore. Even more, chances are if your
computer gets infected it will serve as a drone in somebody's botnet. Which
doesn't nesessary mean any particular damage to your computer whatsoever
because it need to be up and running to serve it's new master.
When you realise that you will probably be not so open in providing advises
that can help circumvent OS security, ignore security best practices and
even common sence.
