    Hi,

    On the internet various sites can obtain information about peoples
    computers such as OS, screen resolution etc etc when surfing.

    Is there anyway I can prevent this information being retrieved by
    these snoopers (it's a bit like someone sticking their head though
    your living-room window).

    Is there a tool available or can sites like anonymizer.com help??

    Thanks,
    Cookie.
