On topic:
One aspect of my world right now is protecting a $100,000,000 corporate
data system from Fatboy The BlasterWormGuy[1]. While I fully understand
that anyone lounging here is a full order of magnitude smarter than the
"average bear," does anyone have any questions about security for the
home wargamer?
?

Fah. All "in" groups sit around talking up how much smarter (or richer
or better looking or whatever) they are than the other guys. Anyone who
talks that way is usually an idiot, even if they are claiming to be smarter.
