Some of us are a bit more professional than that. I am not telling you
HOW I know my machine is not compromised, but I do.
So you have put a chainsaw through it?
That works. Not much else does.
I _believe_ my machine is not compromised. I have a HW and a SW
firewall, it's patched up to date, I'm careful about what I do with it,
it exhibits no unusual behaviour - but I'm not certain.
I don't see how TNP can _know_ unless it's a machine so obscure that no
virus has ever been written for it. And that's pretty obscure.
Well thats uyouir knowelege limits and I have mine.
I know.
Let's say that if anyone has broken in they have left no trace and altered
nothing. Or I would *know*. Which makes it 'not compromised'
Hint: there is no such thing as an undetectable change.
So you don't know then!
