Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Thanks for this information. I did what you said and opted out. I am sick to death (expression only!) of my privacy being invaded. I am just waiting for the government to start microchipping all of us! :-( JUDITH > The power of knowledge and information increases each day as technology advances.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Thanks, I did this. I think it is probably pretty useless to try to keep any information private, anymore. Might as well try, though.

Better yet, buy a program called 'Anonymizer' which blocks info about your computer from the outside world. It's especially useful if you use a notebook at various access sites. Giles.
