4. heck, even all my personal and work machines have a password and uses strict password rules.

5. if you leave your machine on 24/7, LOCK the screen. dont depends on windows screensaver password. use the windows LOCK TERMINAL procedure. that way, if people get a remote connection to it, they still have your windows password to get around.

6. want a cheap backup? use google mail to email it to yourself. that way, you have access to it as long as you web access...

i sure do a password on my computer. which it only have one account. but yes, my brother he ruined my computer before. not only mine, he ruined my sister's, dad's, and even his girlfriend's!! he musta download porn or something. but now, he has no way to get into my computer anymore.
