P.C. or not P.C. ?
Mon, 21 Apr 2008 20:34:06 GMT
I wonder that some bright spark in an ISPs head office somewhere has
not yet objected to the term "Webmaster"......(not politically correct, you
see)
I suppose it's only a matter of time before the term becomes "website
administrator"
or something like that.......especially in government or local authority

I've done an AdAware 2007 scan and can't see any spyware. Likewise I've don ...
