VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Show your support by donating any amount. (Note: We are still technically a for-profit company, so your contribution is not tax-deductible.) PayPal Acct: Feedback:

[> [> A good tip is to send out slightly different spellings of your name on application forms etc, and then you can tell who's been selling on your details to junk mailing lists. I have successfully traced receiving a MBNA GoldCard offer every month for 3 years to the fact that I got myself a Sainsburys store card using this tactic. -- orfc, 12:45:46 05/14/02 Tue (146.176.162.14)
