    Windows can be configured to be just as INSECURE as Linux.

    Fact: they both have vulnerabilities.
    Fact: a beginning to moderately skilled hacker can crack both.

    [ubuntu] Re: WHat is the most secure email service?

    This is becoming circular so I will present my final summary. For privacy use TorMail.

    For maximum security stand up your own mail server.

    For a mixture of security & privacy you have to...

    I was addressing your statement refuting Google and large services as more valuable targets. My point is that where the valuable information lies depends on what you're looking for.

    [ubuntu] Re: WHat is the most secure email service?

    What does that even mean- "break through Tor"? You mean determine the true sender of a Tor packet? It can and has been done. That affects privacy but not security. You have confused the two in your...

    I don't understand what you're hoping to accomplish with the live CD.

    [ubuntu] Re: WHat is the most secure email service?

    Yes Tormail will give you privacy. Just because it's hard for you to find doesn't make it hard for others to find. Obscurity (to you) != security. Ultimately it's just a mail server running on the...

    [ubuntu] Re: GUFW Rules

    What is your plan? Are you using the default setting which is denying all incoming and allowing all outgoing?

    [ubuntu] Re: Am i being hacked ?? i really think so, please help ! :)

    What? No. The default ufw rules will deny all incoming except for those specifically related to traffic you initiated.

    Let's not argue facts, though......

    [ubuntu] Re: Virtual AND Dual Boot Windows?

    No. A virtual machine is totally unrelated to your dual booted OS.

    You have numerous options though. You could run windows with Virtual Box. Then install Ubuntu in a vm.
