Melinbone - Logging off will, in many cases, get you a new IP address when you log back on and the hacker will have effectivly lost you. However, if you're running a broadband router you will still have the same ip address when you switch your pc back on - disconnect the router for a time in this case. I find XP and a router pretty good as a firewall on a normal PC.

Thanks for that, brianboru.
I run Sygate Firewall, AVG anti-virus, Spybot Search and Destroy
for trojans, and Adaware for cookies etc...
I check for updates and run them every day.
Every day my system picks up tracking cookies that Spybot and Adaware
gets rid of for me and Sygate, so far, touch wood, has kept the hackers
out.
First thing I do before logging in to a trading or banking site is
check and clear my system for any tracking or key-logging software.
It's become an integral part of my browsing habits.

Melnibone,
I also run Spybot, Adware and AVG and agree with your comments that good housekeeping seems to work.

It's still dropping though. Careful.
At least nobody who reads this thread should have been long GSK
the last couple of months. At the very least we should have sown
the seeds of doubt.

Just watched Tom H. on the Bloomberg TA spot.
He's got the Bear fur and claws on again.
Presents quite a good historical arguement for another dip
before an election year rise.

Will be quite volatile over there today, little woman.
Options expiry will whip it about plus you'll have the
Bears worried about news from Pakistan which should make
the dips nervous fleeting affairs.
