If any of you have installed Alexa software, prior to version 5.0, on your
computer, you may be eligible to receive part of a class action lawsuit
settlement. Alexa is a Web browser plug-in that tells you about related
sites when you visit a Web site. Apparently it was also illegally
collecting information about users.
I don't know the details of the settlement, but there were large $ amounts
on the pages I quickly looked at, large enough to kind of make me wish I
had been less paranoid and installed the software myself. (I saw a figure
of $2,000, but I'm not sure that's what claimants receive. For information
on the settlement, including an 800 number, and how to submit a claim, go to:
