Re: Cable Vs. DSL

This question is similar in nature to "Which tastes better, apples, or

Both may be secured, yet neither is more secure of themselves. You are 
connected to an unsafe, open network (Internet). If you provide no 
security yourself(firewall, virus protection, etc) then you rely on your 
upstream ISP to setup packet filters, virus protection, etc.
