I know the cow is out of the barn on this, but I have a question about how secure my computer is when I am hosting fantasy grounds.
My setup is as follows: running an ultimate license on my iMac using crossover with an airport router that goes through my DSL router.
I have been playing 4E for over a year now with a fantastic group of players I met through a video game message board. What I would like to do now is share the love a little bit and run a few games for other people on the same message board so that they can get a look at what fantasy grounds has to offer.
My concern is that nearly everyone on the message board is more tech savvy than I am. My guess is that 5 or 6 new people would be interested in playing in a session, but I really have no idea who these people are. If by some horrible bad luck one of these people wanted to hurt my computer, would it be easy for them to do so?
Of course, with my current group I took the same chance, and I have had nothing but the most positive experience. I am fairly certain I will have the same results with a new group of people, but I thought I would turn to the people on this board and ask the question.
Thanks for your time!
