You should already be aware of all thousands of bugs, viruses, denial of service attacks and other unfriendly items that lurk on internet and virtually try attacking every second. It's like having a screen door on your most valuable assets. Let's not repeat what you know about, let's look at a larger picture that should concern everyone - unknown. There are attacks that go unreported for various reasons, these are ones that major software and hardware vendors have no clue about and can only warn you after an attack is reported.

People starting out in their first home based business adventure almost always suffer information overload in early stages of trying to get their business up and running. I often refer to this as "taking a drink from a fire hose syndrome".

For first time home business entrepreneur there will be a great deal of "newness" to virtually all aspects of getting their business started. When you combine all of this "newness" along with natural sense of excitement and eagerness, it is easy to understand how people can easily fall prey to feeling of being overwhelmed and lost.

To a degree, confusion/frustration/overload situation frequently encountered in initial startup phase is often similar to old saying about trying to run before learning to walk.

The steepness (is that a word?) of learning curve depends not only upon particular type of business that is being undertaken, but also upon background and skills of person starting business. In any event, when first starting out, people will usually try to move forward too quickly.
