The suction ones work well for me and have the advantage of being able to adjust them using the electric power adjuster. Very stable and clear and have never fallen off, but expensive.

Hi Sheilsy, the information in the signature picture is not your PC specs it is just a picture with no special powers, if you think about it there are plenty of BT users who will have Windows XP and IE6 on their machines.

Don't worry too much, it caught me out first time I saw it as well!  Hence the reason I know it is ficticious, as at the time I was on windows ME! lol

http://www.danasoft.com/sig/halfpiste.jpg is where its at!

Hate to tell you, but it IS your PC and browser details.... but nobody else can see them.

It shows everybody their own details.... so when you are viewing it might show BT and IE if that's what you use, mine shows myISP and Opera (the browser I'm using at the moment)

So does that mean I have given my computer I.D away by posting the actual poster?

If so can i be attacked, I have I think a reasonable security suite on board.

Please hackers dont see this as a challenge

Dont worry shielsy ,the person who has the link in their sig cannot view the details ,only you see them ,its a link to a program that shows you your isp and browser details

If anyone wanted to hack someone else there is practically nothing the person can do if the hacker is reasonably proficient at what they do ,the thing is if truth be known ,most of us dont have anything on our pooters worth hacking into and thats the only reason most of us are not hacked ! not becasue they cant ,becasue why would they want to ?
