    I'm fine with any tracking software they might have. I actually use Gmail for business purposes as well in conjunction with the Google G1 phone. Very handy.

    That being said, you have peaked my curiosity. Do you have any links to back this up with?

    I use FF3 and IE7 (well I don't my mother does) which I've just upgraded to IE8. IE8 the most nothing upgrade ever. Whereas there was a big change graphically between 6 and 7, IE8 is the same as 7. I can't tell any difference. The only thing that's prbably different is the fact that M$ have released more M$ tying software and protocols so that you have to use M$ software or else!

    Going round setting wildlife alight doesn't count. You can't be Roastedsquirreled or Flambedbadgered either.

    That doesn't sound good at all. Do they actually archive ones passwords, email addresses and such? If yes, then I doubt that most people are aware of this.

    I though google kept everything? Probably for advertising purposes. I believe that is what they do/did with GMail.

    When I installed this copy of Windows 2000 a couple of years ago, the first thing I did was go into IE5 and use it to download Opera 9. As I use Opera 99.9% of the time, IE5 has barely been touched.
