  1. what is the liklihood of hackers using trading message boards to infect computers and extract things like tradestation strategies?
     
  2. reading on the TS forums it looks like spyware has been known to target the tradestation data cache which leads me to believe a strategy hack from a trojan obtained on a trading website is plausible.

    the last time i was infected by a virus from a trading site, TS chart sessions reset from custom sessions to 'regular session' with no action on my part on my next launch of the program. could this load an infected cache? has anyone noticed the same?
