• 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.

Hey there,

I am a recent grad from Virginia Tech (and I am going back for more)...

My best advice is lock your door and make sure your roommate does too. If he doesn't than pitch a fit. Even with a lock, you can still get something somehow.

Second, keep the computer out of view. Most people see a laptop and then snatch it....I used a little "shelf" type of thing that was make up of aluminum wires (hard to describe) and you can tightly wrap a cable around that and your computer (putting the computer on the middle shelf) and put it next to your desk. This makes it hard to see and secures everything in it. As for the LCD monitor...just a simple cable will do the job there.

Once again, LOCK YOUR DOOR....your stuff will get stolen otherwise.

Hope this helps
