Quote from: PMS Elle on June 01, 2006, 01:37:55 PMI thought that I might add something noteworthy here- while I was typing that last sentence my empy glass moved maybe two inches toward me, on its own. There's not a breeze in here or anything. Just so you know. that happens ever so often. Either my house/surfaces in the house aren't level (more than one surface does this, there have been at least three, and at least two I am certain aren't level and a third I suspect is uneven as well) or I have a polterghiest, It's never attacked me or anyting though so if it's a ghost I'm not too worried.Did the glass have condensed water on it?

it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.
I can answer that - because its a 'web bug' - it reports back to danasoft. by analysing the data they get from the millions of web bugs implanted in the clever little signs on forums all over the net, they can make inferences about surfing habits, etc. Which they can then sell on to marketers etc, obviously... bastards</hijack>
Danasoft.com doesn't log the IP addresses of people that view our signature graphics - we simply host the custom signatures. When a request comes in to display a signature, our software creates the sign "on-the-fly", and displays the viewer's IP and other computer info on the sign. Our software draws a new sign for every single person that views it.The Danasoft.com signature graphic is not a website statistics tool. It cannot be used to tell you who is visiting your website because we do not provide that service, and as mentioned above, we don't even know who is viewing the signs since we don't log that information.
14:10 - Moarskrillex42: She said something about knowing why I wanted to move to Glasgow when she came in. She plopped down on my bed and told me to go ahead and open it for her.14:11 - Peter5930: So, she thought I was your lover and that I was sending you a box full of sex toys, and that you wanted to move to Glasgow to be with me?

Is the Danasoft signature a hacking tool, or can it be used to violate anyone's privacy?Absolutely not! The Danasoft signature can never be used maliciously. Users come to Danasoft.com and create custom signs, with text that they choose, and they then display their custom signs in forums or on websites using a simple image link. We don't monitor or censor the text that users choose to display on their signs. Regardless of what prankster text might appear on a user's custom sign, the sign is totally harmless.When you view the sign, you will see your IP address and computer info. When others view the sign, they will see THEIR information. Try it, ask a friend to visit danasoft.com. They won't see your IP, they will see their IP. Your information is never shown to others. This is always true, no matter where the Danasoft sign appears (within web pages, emails, etc).Whenever you visit a website, your IP address is automatically broadcast to that site, and it's even broadcast to those sites that you don't visit when you load a website that contains images that are hosted by a third party, such as advertisements. When you load the Danasoft signature from a webpage, your IP address is automatically broadcast to us, just like any other site. Danasoft.com does not "hack" your computer to obtain your IP address. One of the purposes of the sign, besides for fun and amusement, is to spread awareness that your IP and other computer information is known to every website that you visit. If that concerns you, there are software programs available to mask your IP and other information when you surf the web, search Google for those.Danasoft.com doesn't log the IP addresses of people that view our signature graphics - we simply host the custom signatures.

yeh, it doesn't log your IP address, otherwise I'd have said summat about about it - some forums won't allow them at all. I'm pretty sure the fucking things log 'clicks' though, linked to the url it was viewed from - giving them aggregate marketing information, even though it doesn't give any of this to site owners or the user of the signature.
the referring location (e.g., the Site or page that offered a link to a DanaSoft.com page
Please do not use DanaSoft, and other company, web bug signatures on the ....... forums.Such sigs serve as web bugs providing companies, such as blockedwebbug, information about our readers that I feel violate their privacy.These web bug signatures provide those companies the IP address, OS type and version, browser info, as well as the URL of the page being viewed when the sig is stumbled upon. This information can be used to create targeted advertising as well as browsing histories of our readership, which is unacceptable from a privacy stand point.I will remove any such signatures from users profiles as I find them. Thank you for respecting our readers and posters privacy in this matter.
When I went to danasolf.com, it was showing just My IP Address in there sign no other IP Address in the sign was being used.

So when you view it it shows your IP address and when I view it it shows mine.
