While I'd load Zone Alarm as standard on any pre Vista MS OS (and don't forget that the latest Zone Alarm won't work on Win98/ME etc), after so many years of defending the trenches there's not really that much difference between the products anymore (especially for the users who really don't have to know, or don't have a clue, about what's happening on their PC.).

So the result is probably around 1 all at the moment, commerce wise, especially as phishing appears to be coming to the fore, being that the weak link in any type of system remains the human operator.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
