    The Government's Unemployment Rate Doesn't Include Most

    everybody knows that..but in DC politicians are still pretending that the problem(accurate data) did not exist. DC more and more remind me USSR's politburo..filled with clueless old farts,who only care about themselves and their spot under the sun..they don't give a shit about regular folks...

    Need opinions on virus/trojan attack last night

    your setup should be fine.. but! i would cascade routers. this way you will have 2 separate networks, reducing probability of spreading viruses across the networks even more. routers are dirt cheap now. basically-if router address is different-all you have to do is just plug one into another...
