USING WIRELESS? JACK'S LISTENING.

receive on your computer is really not all that private. Your best defense
against eavesdroppers like Jack is to encrypt your wireless connections.

IF SOMEONE WON'T LEAVE YOU ALONE
If someone is following you, showing up places, calling, texting or emailing
often, or perhaps seems to know a lot about you, it may be harassment or
stalking. It can occur in or out of relationships, between acquaintances or
complete strangers. If this or something similar is happening to you or a
friend, you may want a free, confidential place to discuss your situation.
Call Victim Assistance at 303-492-8855 or visit us online.
