hey man for real..when buying a used computer please have that thing checked really close by a qualified computer person.just a few things that come to my mind as an ex-police officer is what sites could be on the hard-drive (which could cause legal problems,at a minimum you would have to explain a few things.. ) and of course .. SPYWARE ...what a better way for a theif to steal your personal banking records and/or see everything you are doing....we had a local case like this that made the news headlines
