1.  Use a search engine to see if your E-mail address is posted anywhere
on the Internet.

2. Don't trust the cookies that are sent to you.

3. Someone's spyware could have been installed in an Internet visit.

4. Many Internet sites keep logs of accesses made.  There is one site
where people post, and humorously comment on, the search-engine terms
that caused searchers to visit their sites.
