Supposedly they are logged at a special server. And each and everyone
(every minute detail) is gone over with a fine tooth comb.
In all likelihood the ones that get there are actually gone over.
---------personal experience RANT-------
I can tell you from experience that on the Mac Platform. TalkBack has
never ever worked. Or if it does work, out of 20 attempts it will send
one report and cause Operating System crash the other 19.
This has been so since first introduced in Netscape Communicator. It
causes the same problems with Netscape6 and Mozilla as well. There is
some component of Full Circle that causes the crash. The problem has
been around since OS 7.6.1 (Earliest I ever used a Netscape product that
used it.) all the way up to 9.1.
So when I download a build of Mozilla, Netscape 6 or Communicator as
soon as its expanded and ready to go I do a sherlock find file and find
all traces of Talkback and FullCircle and dump them in the trash.
I advise anyone with an install on any Mac Up to OS 9.1 to Immediately
get rid of it. Its by far the most worthless piece of software ever
designed to date.
You'd think FullCircle/Netscape would figure out what the h*** is going
on. I mean come on, its been broke since 7.6.
That"s
7.6
7.6.1
8.0
8.1
8.5
8.5.1
8.6
8.6.1
9.0
9.0.1
9.0.2
9.0.3
9.0.4
9.1
That's 14 iterations of system software.
And was on my 7100/66 with 128mb of memory, which replaced with my
G4-500 256mb
I am not the only one having this problem. The subject comes up from
time to time on
<snews://secnews.netscape.com/netscape.communicator>
The first recommendation by Netscape Champions (Netscape Champions
program) is to turn off and remove Talkback /FullCircle.
