Computer spying games from microsoft?
You bet they are getting alot of info off all of us who update .





Think about it how many times does windows update site seem like it takes a long time to find the updates . I bet it's looking in to much more than that way more infact i wonder if the FBI is getting help from old Bill Gates and crew .





I think and i REALLY do that the patroit act has many companys working under cover for them and i belive Microsoft is one of them privacy is in the eye of the beholder .





Cookies now that is a good %26amp; evil item cookies are great if you have dial up and they save you ton's of load up time on a web page you have went to . But on the evil side they can be taken/ copied from say Microsoft when you do a up date and given to who ever asks for them and boom the feds know just where you and i have been .





Even if we switch them off and have our history cleared when we close IE does it really clear them or does it just appear that way ..





I have heard that every harddrive has what is called ghost files and the way it was explaned to me is take a blank HDD that is 10GB add windows that is 1GB so you would have 9GB left but it really don't come out that way and the extra lost space is where the ghost file are kept and only if you write all zeros to the HDD will you ever get rid of them .





Sorry if i seemed to ramble on but in todays world there is no such thing as privacy if you have not noticed if you use plastic to buy stuff your credit card company has a record of what you bought and sometimes you start getting adds in the mail from folks who sell stuff like you have been buying ?
