I have the same worry.
When I turn on my computer and DSL modem, Windows Update and Norton AntiVirus go out to get updates even before I log onto the internet using IE6 and ATT/Yahoo DSL.
If these programs can go to the internet without my being logged on, can something out there in the World Wide Web download something onto my computer without my knowing it? (I have Windows Firewall running and Norton AntiVirus).]]>
