Big_or_what,
I agree with you. But I like to propose alternatives (the devil's advocate)..
Besides I really makes for good conversation.
I really don't use this method normally.
However, I wanted a alternative to use to run my system security and networking tools. I use these to secure and track or find hackers, ect. That way I am not vurnable myself before I even start the process.
One feature I really do like that you can remove un-necessary services and software and that's really my jest here.
Maybe this is beyond the scope of the forum, however I respect this forum and members and I wanted some input from programmers as well. I have proposed this idea on other forums and most of the members either don't understand or care..
But that not the case here..
