Of course, Linux network security can include an intrusion detection
system (IDS) to at least help you know when your Windows system has been
infested (even when the infestation is bypassing all your Windows
security, anti-virus, etc...).

That's typically whey people like myself recommend IPCop.  It gives you
all that in a nice, web-administrated front-end out-of-the-box.

It is mathematically impossible for someone who makes more than you
to be anything but richer than you.  Any tax rate that penalizes them
will also penalize you similarly (to those below you, and then below
them).  Linear algebra, let alone differential calculus or even ele-
mentary concepts of limits, is mutually exclusive with US journalism.
So forget even attempting to explain how tax cuts work.  ;->
