Most people can't do jack shit with your IP most people will do a whois and then google the name/address and shit nothing really.

Because clicking allow on a few websites once is annoying, right? For noscript, Adblock is pretty much a one click setup.

Gentoo is nice except for the whole compiling everything from source bit. You're better off installing something that isn't entirely crippled.

You don't have to worry about them, if they start threatening to use your IP address to send you viruses just laugh at them.
