LockDown is the BEST program I
have ever found to deter those annoying hackers.
First of all, let me say that LockDown is the BEST program I
have ever found to deter those annoying hackers. I have a story to
tell. And will try to make it brief. I am a critical care nurse
by profession, but most recently became interested in computers. I
spent a lot of time in ICQ (A user-friendly chatroom) and met a lot of
people.
I accepted a lot of files, curious as I am... and recently received
a game that had a trojan attached to it. Now, I am not very proficient
with computers as I am with my patients, which therefore made me very
gullible and susceptible to viruses. I had, whom I thought was an ICQ
friend, send me a game, and within seconds, a siren was sounding and I
was getting information that someone was trying to access my computer.
Lockdown notified me that someone was trying to hack into my computer,
and even gave the the person's IP address and service provider (which
I have recently learned). It knocked the person offline, and he even
sent me a message asking me what "proggie" I was using!!! I told him
LockDown.
He was furious because he could not get into my computer! I was able
to report this person to his service provider, and have not had any
problems since that time. At that time, I had another anti-hacking
program, whose name I will not mention, and it did not even notice
that someone was trying to get into my computer! Incidentally, they
had to refund me!
Please....believe me! LockDown is a WONDERFUL firewall that is
not very expensive, and extremely worth my investment. If you are like
me, and like chatrooms, you most definitely need this program installed
into your computer. I will never go a day without it. I have called
the service personnel at Lockdown on numerous occasions computer
illiterate as I am, and they have always been there for me to answer my
questions and help me keep hackers out.
