Default The hidden dangers of MS Word

Hi,

People reading your Word .doc can learn a lot more about you than you might think, such as:

* Text from other documents open at the same time
* Previously deleted text
* E-mail headers and server information
* Printer names
* Data about the machine where the document was written
* Where the document was saved
* Word version number and document format
* Names and usernames of document authors

A lot more info can be found at the link below ...

Best,

- Boyd
