Very interesting...........you'd think the American Government would be a
little more careful.

> With PDF you can disable copy, paste, edit etc. But with Word it's a
different story. With Word document you can view heaps of hidden info which
could be pretty embarrassing. As an example, go to
http://hsc.house.gov/files/testimony%20gingrich.doc to download Gringrich's
speach, open it in you Word, then click on File-->properties-->custom tab
and view the info. Now close this document, go to File-->Open and in the
File of Type box just below the "File name" box, scroll down to 'Recover
Text of Any File (*.*)'. Now scroll down the document and view the "history"
of this document...embarrassing? interesting!!

can go to Microsoft website to download the hidden data removal too.
