I too am curious as to what it said.

Time to change all passwords for all local admin accounts, d/l and install the latest security patches, and reset the security on your local hard drive to only allow the local admin group to access it, and not Everyone

it's a linksys 4port router

i know the other computer that was added onto it gave my laptop a lot of problems... i've been getting trojans and worms from that computer over the home network. I would format the other computer but it has problems installing windows so i never got around to it.
