Vista - IE8 b contains key stroke loger / computerworld

IE8 Beta 2 contains Google-style keystroke logger

I installed it yesterday and was quite impressed (even with this feature).

Not any more...thanks for the tip.

""When Suggested Sites is turned on, the addresses of Web sites you visit are sent to Microsoft, together with some standard information from your computer such as IP address, browser type, regional and language settings," the privacy statement reads. Other data that Search Sites collects includes the time that sites were visited, which site referred the user to the destination site and how long the user was at the destination site.""

It is Not a Keylogger...This data is sent every time you access a website, from every web-browser on every operating system, Computer World is singling out Microsoft and IE8 and making an issue out of nothing to drive traffic to its site and make money from its advertising!

They are putting a spin on something has been around since the internet was first invented just to make people visit there page to make money from the advertising,
Every site collects your IP address, browser type, regional and language settings, the time that sites were visited, which site referred the user to the destination site and how long the user was at the destination site since the Internet was first invented....Microsoft is just stating the fact in its EULA while every other company & website does not inform you about its collection...

I cant believe ComputerWorld would try fool people into believing this "keylogger" crap

Well said, dmex

It's like those stupid iPhone 3G adverts (one on now) that make you think that 3G is just fast internet.
