Personally, I consider every version of Windows 9x a Trojan Horse program. As Palemoon said, go to http://****microsoft.com/ and u will see why I think that. It logs every friggin page you have ever visited along w/ lots of other stuff. And yes, M$ tries very hard to keep those files hidden. But M$ is not the only one invading our privacy, spyware, adware, etc, all log information that other people really should not know. Whatever the case, our privacy is been invaded and its not right, but as usual, its legal. But hey, this could be a whole new topic. (Which I'm sure has been covered here @ AO already.) I really wouldn't doubt that M$ is taking information from our computers they shouldn't know about, but I don't really worry about it that much. Just think of how many reports they get in a day. Think of how many people use their products. Millions. Not like they're gonna know you by your first name and become friends w/ your boss! (And for some people, that could be a very bad thing. lol)
