And I bet no one will like it when thrax gets angry.

On a side note, that's why I stick with Jasc/Corel Paint Shop Pro. I've got both 9 and 11, along with the gimp.

I'd like to see that same thing observed by more than just one blogger (blogs are like *********, everyone's got one). Not saying he's wrong, but right now it's just some guy on the Internet making a claim.

I am shocked that it took the blogger so long time to figure that out :D
Here is the next wake up call :bigggrin:

What's the big deal? 2o7.net is Omniture, which is an analytics company that provides application usage statistics.

For example: "90% of users never use the Options --> Things --> Stuff dialog. Perhaps development time and money could be better spent elsewhere".

Take off the tinfoil hats, guys :rolleyes:

OMG ADOBE SPYED ON ME WATCHED ME MAKE BROCHURES.

What's the big deal?
1) Making it appear to be from 192.168 etc. is intentionally deceptive.

2) Where's the "OH HAI, we'd like to watch your usage but here's the opt out" like Winamp does?
