Description
Quiet prevents hackers from evesdropping your key strokes.
Feature
Oh yes, it is extremely easy to infect your machine with trap door programs
that steal information in your PC, monitor your key strokes, etc.
Oh no, virus programs only detect well known bugs, non of them ever
managed to detect any I have written.
Oh yes, you can use firewall alright, but most firewalls block connections
initiated from outside...... and at most warn connections initiated
from your system...... so unless you have been really careful and know
exactly what programs on your PC are legitimate and what are not...
you are vulnerable.
Oh no, even though your browser encrypts your online transaction,
you are still vulnerable because a baddie program can still monitor
your key strokes and compose your credit card numbers or other private
information from them.
As a second line of defense (or first rather, I don't have firewalls,
I need to run programs that need two way connections, but I am not
worried, I have full backups of everything, and I have nothing on my
PC for hackers to steal...... nontheless, I became worried when I type
passwords when doing online banking), I wrote Quiet, which hopefully will
block such attempts......
