Privacy enhancement - a FREE DEMO of NSClean is available to look at:

 Did you know that Netscape maintains an array of files
and databases on your machine which records not only your
activities on the web, but also which messages in which
newsgroups you read?  Did you know that every single
picture and screen you read on the web is also recorded?
Did you know that your user ID can be gotten from Netscape
without you even knowing it? Do you know what's in your
"cookie" file? Once you see the "history database," you'll
forget all about cookies.

 In corporate and governmental situations, computer
crackers and maintenance technicians can conceivably
discover sensitive internal documents and their locations
on your network server from these files if they are able
to get at them. In school and library situations where
public access is granted to the internet at these
locations, children could easily access inappropriate
sites merely by looking at the computer screen left behind
by the last person who used that particular machine. The
wealth of information left behind by web browsers is a
computer cracker's dream!

 Lots of information you probably wouldn't want anyone
else to know about your habits and choices on the internet
are held on YOUR computer where any person with
rudimentary computer skills (like computer technicians,
your kids or your neighbor's kids) can read all about you
and perhaps visit unsavory sites with a simple text
editor. And it's not just Netscape.  Microsoft's Internet
Explorer can do the same, and a version of NSClean for
Internet Explorer will be shipping in a few weeks. For now,
Netscape is safe if you use NSClean32.

 If you would like to see what Netscape has hidden on your
system, you can download a FREE demonstration of NSClean
right now. The demonstration, called "nsdemo32" will show
you the contents of the various files and databases. It
will also tell you how to get a copy of NSClean32, which
will remove this information if you desire. The NSClean32
product works reliably not only with Windows95, it works
reliably with older versions of Windows such as Windows
3.1, Windows 3.11, Windows for Workgroups and Windows NT.

 There are no "cookies", no "javascripts", no email grabs, not
even a "hit counter" on our home page. At the bottom of the
main page are links to other locations where you can discover
the TRUTH about "cookies" and such from other credible,
reputable sites that aren't trying to sell you something.

 Once you get an idea of what is real and what isn't, I hope
you will be interested in the NSClean product. You will not be
hounded with junk email, and I won't know who you are if you
drop by and take a look. Privacy is as important to me as it
is to you and I promise yours will be respected.

 NSClean has been written about in InfoWorld Magazine (a
publication for Network administrators and serious computer
users) as well as PC World online. NSClean has also been
discussed on a number of radio stations across the country
as a viable security measure. As mentioned above, the demo
is FREE and will show you the contents present on YOUR machine
so you can verify for yourself how real this all is. The sites
where the demo can be had are genuine respectable sites that
have poured over the program to ensure the absence of any kind
of nasties. Come take a peek and separate the hysteria from the
truth.
