WARNING POSTERS (and note to administration) - a couple of different firewall programs on different computers have been popping up warnings about private information being transferred when using this message board.
Administration - working under the assumption that this is not a purposeful effort on your part, please try and maintain a level of security here. I am no expert - and maybe some here are - but different comps, different programs, same warnings about information I have defined as "personal" attempting to transfer.
Except that the complaintent says that they have seen it on more than one computers. I can only report that we have not seen these problems on our computers here (4). That does not necessarily prove anything, but statistically, it would be improbable for there to be a problem with this board based on that. The only problem with that conclusion is that each of those four machines here uses the same spyware and adaware programs so that if something is happening that these programs are not trapping, then all four machines would miss it.

Warning - Can you please tell us:
Which firewall software you are using?
What are the EXACT messages being popped up?
What 'private information' you are told is being transferred?
For what it's worth, I run Zone Alarm and have never had any issues with this board.
I'll also try making a connection with a packet sniffer active to see exactly what info is being passed.
