It sends stuff about your computer/software/etc back to the software company. hence the 'spy' part. I use a program called 'ad-aware' which searches your computer for known spy software. you can download it from www.lavasoft.de/   zac   ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 11:46 PM Subject: Re: OFF TOPIC: COMPUTERS hi, what do you mean spyware?                                       mark k                        ----- Original Message ----- From: Ben To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 1:13 PM Subject: Re: OFF TOPIC: COMPUTERS XP is just bloatware ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Rudd To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 3:26 AM Subject: RE: OFF TOPIC: COMPUTERS Good advice that, XP is Spyware for Windows and things that worked fine with 98SE curl their toes up. We had to put 1gb of ram into all of our XP workstations with P4 1.5G Mhz processors to out perform P3's with Win98SE - go figure.   regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of maldat Sent: Monday, 15 April 2002 10:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: OFF TOPIC: COMPUTERS Biff out XP and use win98se 1Gb of ram and a G4 video card wont work with XP either. I belive with XP mirrosloppy can get into your system when you are online and they can see what you have? Im not a computer person,I also found ME to be crap,that computer now has win 98se as well.
