Internet Security

Internet security is like an oxymoron in my opinion. You are protected but never secure. Somebody asked me the other day if my IM service was secure. I responded sure, not really thinking about it. Nothing done on the Internet or a computer for that matter is secure. Definitely not an IM service that goes through a 3rd party. Every stroke of a key on your computer is recorded and held in your computer. If your doing something you don't want to be found out, I would not encrypt it on your computer. I would also not send thing through a 3rd party like email, IM, or something like myspace. They also record everything you do through their site.
