Subject: Privacy From: mack/misophist Date: 26 Mar 02 - 11:09 AM Anyone using AudioGalaxy, Kazaa, or similar programs should take a look at this: http://www.wired.com/news/privacy/0,1848,49960,00.html In the last year, several people have mentioned using these programs. It's not necessarily a good idea. Sorry about the lack of a direct link; I learned how and forgot because I never used the knowlege. |

Subject: RE: BS: Privacy From: GUEST Date: 27 Mar 02 - 10:11 AM I have had a great deal of fun typing in such things as "*.txt" or "*.doc" and receiving resumes, tax records, term papers from strange folk I don't know, most of them, for some strange reason in the Carolinas and Georgia. Try it - it is fun! |
Subject: RE: BS: Privacy From: GUEST,maryrrf Date: 27 Mar 02 - 10:37 AM I tried to download Audiogalaxy and had a problem so I gave it up. I was thinking of trying again. So what's the scoop - is it safe or not??? I'm starting to have second thoughts. |
