Anyhow, what's one more Shiela in my life... there's been dozens of 'em over the years, and a couple of 'em gave me malware, so one that protects and fights against it wouldn't go astray.

As always, Doc, thanks for the work you do to bring these gems to us. :thumbsup:

Actually, I never have.  Back in the day it was not usual to wear such a thing... and these days, when it is advised/recommended, I can't run fast enough to catch anyone.  I was told about an old girl down at the retirement village who relies on a walking frame, but turned out she was faster than me and got away, too.

Nope, though somebody once accused me of being a Trojan Horse.  I told her: "Like buggery, if I'm coming over I'll enter through the front door!"

If this is for a corporate environment, just disable USB storage via GPO.

If it's for home, don't plug unknown USB drives into your system?
