I'm curious myself...how IS the Nokia 97?

Boxee is OK, but I personally have become a fan of XBMC. It supports HDMI and a boatload of cool features. It works on Windows, Linux and Mac OSX.

Not currently, no. There is something if you run WinAmp though:

I would also rate it as a one because I've used it once, and I would liken it to that of Microsoft Frontpage. It's extremely basic. It sort of reminds me of the old GeoCities sites days.

@ ascorbic
I recently urged those in charge of the IT arm of our organization to get an IDS/IPS (intrusion detection/prevention) device into place. With the recession and budgets getting tighter, it's really hard to convince those in charge of the budget, to see (like Vako referenced) the how the total cost of ownership is in their favor, if the cost of the mitigating the risk is less than the risk itself. A perfect example I recently gave, was demonstrating how an employee on our network could run a packet sniffer and capture unencrypted data without any alarms being triggered. Once my manager and our Director saw that, it sent up a red-flag for them and it became a no-brainer. ^_^

It really depends. Honestly battery life is a big deal and I don't think you can really beat Apple. Who knows what's happening in the next few months with all the leaks and possibilities of other providers for the iPhone.
I currently have a BB World Edition for work and a HTC Touch Pro for personal. The Touch Pro sucks, BUT I love I can tether from it (with WIFI undetected, like a Myfi) and use logmein.
Give me any phone with Logmein capabilities and I'll be happy, give me a phone with WiFi tether and I'm sold.
Btw, the Touch Pro when tethered through WiFi draws so much power a wall charger doesn't keep up. The heat safe guards come on and prevent the unit from continuously charging, sucks.
b0park, you aren't kidding. I use MyWi on my iPhone, and literally, plugging it in doesn't keep it charged consistenly as it really drains the battery. If I'm going to be sitting somewhere awhile, I end up using the stupid USB tether instead for "battery's sake".

For those who said being a hacker in the "true" sense of the word takes a passion, they hit the mark perfectly. It's not like you can not have an interest in all things technology (more specifically security) related and just pick up a computer with software and "hack". Google really is an awesome resource for things. Be curious, test the boundaries. Start with the basics like using a packet sniffer (Wireshark for example) and seeing what you capture. I suggest going over the OSI model and learn a basic understanding of the various protocols first. The one thing you should take away from this abc123simple, is to BE CURIOUS.

af22man, Are you a Verizon customer? If so, I'd say stick it out to see if Apple releases a CDMA version of the 4th generation iPhone.

Web interface - however she can't access it through her works laptop as its blocked, she always accesses it from home computers.
She uses outlook at work
I would also make sure she has the option for always using HTTPS instead of HTTP. It's possible her credentials were sniffed: See here.

I like Trend (at least for work). Whatever you end up picking, make sure it's not McAfee :P : http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/mcafee-...wn-xp-machines/

Just to add to what the other posts replied with:
Defensively speaking...
* File integrity checker (Tripwire)
* Firewall (Trend Internet Security has a pretty decent host-based firewall built-in to their AV)
* Shut down any unneeded Windows services (Blackviper)
* Custom hosts file? (meh)
Just my two cents....
