Re: OOH!

Hi DS,
Someone pointed out to me that your "false" e-mail addresses are real domain
names (goodbye.com and unknown.com) and you're exposing their addresses to
the spambots. But, we can be sure that this is not the first time those
names have been used. ;-) You might try invalid.com.

Regarding ordinary Javascript on webpages... that's handled by JScript and
other components of Windows Script (5.6) MS-VM or Sun Java JRE would be
needed for things like online games, chat, etc.

Back to the problem. I really like Robert's ideas regarding the UserAgent
information that's being sent out. Do you have *any* security/privacy
programs running on this machine that might be changing/blocking that
information? Zone Alarm or another firewall, WebWasher, pop-up blockers?

When you reinstalled XP, was it a "clean" reinstall? It might be worth a try
to delete the Temporary Internet Files folder (
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm ) and delete all Yahoo cookies.
