You shouldn't.
Personal computers are now part of the furniture in homes around the world. We use them for generating, storing and communicating documents and images; we talk to friends and family via email and surf the Web without giving too much thought to the security of our personal information. Unfortunately hacking and computer security are issues which affect all computer users, not just big corporations.
What is a desktop witness?
Your computer stores a record of every
document you create, every e-mail you write or receive, which sites you visit on
the Internet, even attachments which you don't open.
An unattended computer may reveal your secrets if you leave security vulnerabilities unattended to. It may 'let in' outsiders through your IR port. It 'whispers' behind your back when you are online. Detectable radiation gives away the contents of your screen. Eavesdroppers can hear conversations through your microphone. Your computer remembers everything.
What can you do?
This straight-talking guide, with its easy-to-follow
instructions will enable you to regain control and protect your personal
information. It will show you the virtues of computer-anonymity, by making you
aware of what might motivate people to access your computer in the first place,
and it will help you free-up valuable memory by showing you how to really delete
the files your computer stores without your knowledge.
A valuable read for any computer user and absolutely essential for any individual, company or practice with information to protect.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
你信任你的電腦嗎？你不應該這樣做。
個人電腦現在已經成為全球家庭中的一部分。我們用它們來生成、儲存和傳遞文件與圖像；我們透過電子郵件與朋友和家人聯繫，並在上網時不太考慮我們個人信息的安全。不幸的是，駭客攻擊和電腦安全是影響所有電腦使用者的問題，而不僅僅是大型企業。
什麼是桌面見證者？你的電腦會記錄你創建的每一個文件、你撰寫或接收的每一封電子郵件、你在互聯網上訪問的網站，甚至是你未打開的附件。
如果你將安全漏洞置之不理，未經監控的電腦可能會洩露你的秘密。它可能會通過你的紅外線端口「讓外部人員進入」。當你在線時，它會在你背後「竊竊私語」。可檢測的輻射會洩露你螢幕上的內容。竊聽者可以通過你的麥克風聽到對話。你的電腦記住了一切。
你能做什麼？這本直言不諱的指南，配有易於遵循的指示，將使你重新掌控並保護你的個人信息。它將讓你了解電腦匿名的優點，讓你意識到什麼可能驅使人們首先訪問你的電腦，並幫助你釋放寶貴的記憶體，教你如何真正刪除電腦在你不知情的情況下儲存的文件。
這是任何電腦使用者都值得一讀的書籍，對於任何需要保護信息的個人、公司或實踐來說，絕對是必不可少的。
