>John Hebert I visited the site, and found that it told me very little about my computer -- just what I would expect the http protocol to report to a site that I visit. I did run all of the special scans under Windows 98 -- both with Mozilla (1.4) and IE (5.5). All of the specialized scans reported the same -- No information. This is also what the GRC site reports. I am running a very secure firewall/proxy server that I have learned to trust -- WinProxy 5.0 with bundled virus protection -- on a dedicated machine running Windows 98SE. Over a period of time and by visiting various security sites, I have tweaked it so that only the information I want to send out is sent.
