A question about guests...

[_Jersey Girl]

Sometimes when I look in on "Wno is online" I see the list of ususal suspects. Under that is a list of "guests" and sometimes, it says that a guest is posting a message. How does that work? I'm just curious.

My guess would be that its those really disturbing ones who post the adds in the off-topic forum. The ones who make me run my spyware seek and destroy just for shareing a board with their company.

Actually, someone registered the name "guest." I'd prefer he didn't use that name, as he already registered another, but any post by "guest" is from a specific member.

Keene,

It's down in that link to "Who is online". There appears a list of registered posters and then below that a list of guests online. For example, I just looked in there and it says "There are 3 guest users online", then it "accounts" for their various locations...one of the forums, logging on, viewing a profile or "posting a message". I was just wondering how a guest user could be posting a message.

Gaz,

I think you're right about the guest postings being the google adds.

GET A MAC.

To put it in terms you understand Gaz, a Mac is like wearing Mormon garments.. except this one is real and does protect you from the peecee world.
