I'll side with Steve on this issue. The first time I saw this was from
a similar post to TBBETA. I also checked around on other sites to see
what was being said about the whole issue. What I found mostly, is
that the other pages were just either repostings or paraphrasing of
the original.
I couldn't find any other information to support the original claim.
While I did D/L the cleaner utility, I didn't run it because I
couldn't immediately see anything out of the ordinary when examining
the captured packets between my machine and the advertiser host while
running CuteFTP advert supported software.
This weekend, I'll examine more packets from longer sessions using
multiple advertiser supported software. I'm not saying that the
original claims are unfounded, but I find it kind of hard to believe
that all the information that the original poster says is being sent
is actually getting sent.
