    Robo-bodyguard!

    I just got an add from WinZip to buy Zone Alarm Internet Security, with this as one of the bullets:

    Protects You Online And Off
    Blocks the full spectrum of threats on your computer and in the physical world "

    I never knew Zone Alarm could protect me from a full spectrum of physical world threats!  Hurricanes, ageing, tornados, muggers, the common cold, stubbed toes, hijacked airplanes and over-heated McDonald's coffee in the lap, are no longer dangers!  Woohoo!

    Someone tell Dubbyah!
    If he just buys Winzip, he will never need to worry about WMDs again...

    It's actually quite amazing.  If you install it on a laptop, whenever you drop the laptop, a little parachute comes out to slow its fall.

    Odd, when I tried that, it told me I was a threat to myself.

    You "forgot" to read the manual before turning it on.

    No, it's just that the manual is online.
