360419 2005-06-01 22:55:00 Pfft, nothing special. A reverse lookup on your computer's IP and a read of the browser ID information.

Incidentally it's flawed. My Linux machine showed up as a Macintosh PowerPC running Netscape 5.0.

Somehow I don't think so.

360421 2005-06-02 07:36:00 I wouldn't be bothered about this. But I'd be worried if it came up with your name, address, telephone number, bank account details, favourite food, name of first girlfriend etc etc... manicminer (4219)
360422 2005-06-02 07:52:00 I wonder, if u have more than 1 OS, can it detect all of them instead of the current one you are using?

Cheers :)

360423 2005-06-02 08:37:00 When I tried the first time I got a message saying that there had been a problem with Firefox.exe and that I should report the problem to Microsoft...... I certainly will not !! :groan: Though the problem could quite probably be coincidental. The second try everything worked fine and the information that I understood and could corroborate was correct. :@@:

I doubt it, as the other OS would just be a data file on your harddrive, and all this site is doing is using the http? browser user agent stuff and showing it to you, you can actually write a little script that shows most of this info yourself using those variables.
