I don't think my message went to the whole list before. Still learning. I am worried now because this privacy window seems to have done something to my browser functions on the voicenote. When I enter an URL to go to other than the book site, I get the error message that the voicenote cannot find the server. If I go back to see what server it was looking for, instead of having the url I've just entered, it waas trying to go to a site which includes read or perhaps it is reed // windows something dll, and some other letters, and finally at the end the url I had typed. so something is being added to my url instruction just as when a browser is hijacked in Windows. This, I fear, may be an indication I have done my dasterdly deed once more and found a way to get a voicenote hacked in mere hours of using it. I certainly hope not. But I have a long history of Beta Testing critical stop discoveries that make me paranoid with this problem. I can no longer just enter an URL to get to a web page as I was able to do a few hours ago before this problem.
