Your bank details, passport info and other personal details could be in folders on your laptop, but I'm not trying to access that data so it makes no difference.
Yes m8, I do understand, thats why I changed the drive & only put my VOIP provider on it. There is no other info or e mail details on there.

I have changed the password too. If it is hacked, the only info accessible will be the VOIP account. I wont be using it for anything else now.

I have to agree with both of you regarding "Scaremongering" it worried me thinking someone could hack into my PC.
