Wolf Within

Never a dull moment
My main computer, has gone crash, bang, boom.
Can't keep a window open for the life of me and never before have I had to pull out 22 Trojans.
My routine is the same, I do a lot of searches on the net - my email, here and facebook.
Then, I was visiting an older gent who is somewhat housebound and his computer is his extention to the world - in his day, he was an electronics engineer and has lived in several parts of the world during his career. He's been sick for the past 10 years and doesn't venture too far.
He was looking for a couple of pictures on his computer (files and files with hundreds of pictures) when he discovered they were ALL GONE and somehow replaced with 12 pictures of Musslim Men!!!
My first words were, call the RCMP...
It gave me the heebie geebies and got me to wondering how many of us are actually "watched" online and by "whom"!
food for thought....
(and yes, his computer is up to date - for protection, yet this still happened and no, I don't even have his email addy, I visit instead)
Scary how something like this could happen....
