My brother asked about receiving unsolicited emails after visiting a
specific website. I don't use any of the providers he does. His
interests are quite different than mine and I suspect we rarely, if
ever, visit the the same sites.
I asked some OS agnostic questions. When I found that he had recently
changed *OS _versions*, I mentioned it. In passing I mentioned that it
was two versions of Windows. Some were apparently offended that their
assistance was assisting a Windows user. For possible offense, I apologize.
King Beowulf's post causes me to realize that the underlying problem is
cookie control and the use of free(sic) services/sites. Have routinely
avoided unrestricted use of cookies, JavaScript, and so-called "free"
services since the early days of WindowsXP.
