Yes I have. I want to direct your attention to this response and my thoughts on it. Lorrie :a PC can become a 'broadcasting device' whereby any sound in the room where the PC is located can be captured, then either recorded and/or broadcast LIVE on the WWW...or both...without the targeted PC's user's knowledge Bob:Not on this planet, it can't According to :http://netsecurity.about.com/compute/netsecurity/library/wee Sound System". When you click on that button, if the host computer has a microphone connected to it, you can listen in on any sounds or conversations that are going on in the room as well as record them. Of course NetBus also has a keystroke recorder. Now who do you believe Bob or the above webb site?....I haven't a clue quite frankly....But Lorrie asked Bob in her response to him about these [there are others that she has posted ]links.As I write this there has been no more from him. The point of the above is that in spite of denials by Bob and others ,none of who have addressed these links, [ that I saw ]she is reasonable to continue to question the potential for these things to be done,...no?
