To the LUGer who sent: "I just tried the URL given by the OP. The website looked credible and had places to enter given and surname for a search. I entered a given name and got a drop down list below the surname box. That was a bit alarming, as the list appeared mined from my machine, likely from Firefox. Since I'm running Linux, I don't feel as vulnerable as most and pushed my luck by clicking the appropriate surname and commanding search. That brought a zero hit reported result and a warning that 2 people were spying on me, with an offer of software to identify who. OK, now the picture is clear...
This may be judged off topic for the list, but I personally feel it a duty to pass on information which may help others, and should note that my Firefox is obsolete, so may be vulnerable to attacks which are not a problem for current versions. kb" I just tried entering only a given name and did not get a drop down list in the surname box. I've used this site several times since the link was first posted, and have never had this happen with it. I've also never gotten a message about anyone spying on me. I'm running Firefox, Windows 7, and Office 2010.
