   For sure, Peter. I'm guessing if you did have the best security possible   
   on your Computer, the Naughty person would just pick up your Computer   
   and run .... and then, possibly, spending some time (at Naughty Persons   
   convince) trying to break your security.   
      
   And then just throw the Computer on some junk heap somewhere.
