Hi PC Workers,
Just a quick question about your experience of the need for a firewall
if one is using a dial-up ISP exclusively.  I am wondering if folks even
need to use a firewall software (or hardware) if they are not online all
the time, but just dial-up when they want to go online.

Then again, I wonder what the issues becomes as far as how long they
stay online after dialing in? Is there a point of diminishing safety
where you open yourself up to the bad guys depending upon your time
online after dialup?

Anyone have any experience or see any parameters on this?
