All IP addresses detail the geographic region of its origin. So many ads use the IP address to generate more specific targetting in their ads.

To bad the engine apparently isn't reading other parts of my headers. I don't think I'll be visiting these sites for Spyware removal on a Windows platform any time soon.
Well, actually I did, just to see where they lead. Some of these are very close to being scams, the kind of app you install to protect your computer that then imbeds itself in such a way it's hard to delete without yet another spyware/adware removal tool and nags you constantly to "upgrade" to the version it says you need to remove the "very serious" threats on your system.
I fear this is going to be a running joke for a very long time.

What's fun is to set up your browser to go through a proxy in some place like India. All sorts of new and useless crap, but it's fun to know what marketers think people in India need.
Okay, I admit it. I have no life.

Bush is stoopid paraphernalia.

FBI is hiring. Earn degrees for a job in the intelligence community.

Oprah. New Age hoohah. Cure panic attacks.
I'm getting a deluge of back-of-the-Enquirer piffle from right here in Bush's Yew-nigh-na States.

21. It's not reactionary to worry about being tracked |
|
I use my real name, but don't like the idea of cookies storing the posts that I click through or the topics that interest me. I was happy to contribute, but the capability of Google ads creeps me out. I keep their software off my desktop and use my gmail account strictly for school and work.
