I think it is exceedingly rude to connect an improperly secured computer to the Internet. That includes anything running Windows that is not firewalled, updated and checked for malware DAILY, improperly configured mail servers that can act as open relays and a few other things. The Internet cannot work if people refuse to be responsible citizens. -- "The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them". -- Albert Einstein
