Janice , I hope you don't mind me adding my two cents. I hope you don't use your real name. I think it is very risky for anyone to use real names in chat groups. Risky from the point that there are "Bone Heads" out there that get off on being ***holes.

Check out this survey Silicon Investor did:
techstocks.com
83% of users were male, and 11% were female.

I have read allot on the topic of Internet security, and on-line stalking articles. A good friend of mine is going to be Sun Certified soon, he does network / Internet security for large companies. You would not believe the horror stories he tells me. If you are interesting in anything about Internet security PM me and I will send you some info.

In my opinion never do this in chat groups: NEVER use your real name, NEVER use your main e-mail address. (Especially if you are a female) Get an e-mail address from one of those free services, so when you have to changing it, it is not a big deal. Spam is a problem as well, mainly from stock newsletters.

Just my opinion, sorry you are having problems.
