• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I remember with XP there was a guide with a list of services you can turn off if you just have a single computer household, services that allow access from remote computers that would be potential holes for hackers. Anyone have a link to a list like this for Win7 ?
 
Just go to System Properties, Remote tab..and put a check in "Don't allow connections to this computer". Now it's shut off.

*Enable the firewall hides the service
and/or
*Have it behind a NAT router..thus blocking ports from being exposed to the internet, totally hiding you.
