Re: Hello

Hi Cohen, welcome to TSF.

Probably the best place to start would be the security centre - http://www.techsupportforum.com/security-center/

Re: Hello

The only section you won't be able to post in at the moment is the HJT section. You'll need to be on the security team to have posting rights there. They are not taking any applications at the moment however.
