Do you use your computer as superuser root or ordinary user? Do you use proprietary software like Adobe Flash? Some of your writings sound like you run into ordinary software bugs (or even packaging bugs), but not successful intrusion by hackers. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I've tried and tried and tried to make that custom iso, but it always messes up..? as in never works.. If I had that CD, I wouldn't give a flyin'thht if the kooks damaged this crapper internet box's OS.. I'd probably DBAN the hd, and reinstall a new fully loaded fedora every couple weeks.. Heck! if I could, I'd set it to automatically DBAN itself, and reinstall F-14, every Monday morning, without it needing to be net-connected.. so than the g'rillas wouldn't get in, to mess it up, to get their precious wet's and tinglies bullying innocents... No, I haven't tried F-16 for testing its screensaver slideshow time period.. I'm a little gun-shy, after trying F-15, WhooH! YikerS!.. It was a nightmare in the least..

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. What evidence do you have that strangers have targeted your machine and repeatedly trashed it? What have you done to make your computer either an easier or harder target? Have you disabled either your firewall or SELinux, and if so, why? Do you have the ssh daemon active and if so, do you allow root logins?

I don't know what you're doing to make Fedora fail often enough to worry about this, but my experience is very, very different from yours. The last time I did a clean install on my desktop, it was F9 and, except for F10 and F15 which I skipped because they seemed flaky, I've used preupgrade to go from one to another without any trouble until F16.
