Hmm, have discovered that (hold on....) trying to chat - to several people at once - and post (hold on...) at the same time can be a bit difficult...

(The 'hold on' wasn't for effect, that was the points I had to stop writing to reply...)

THIS is why I am not a geek. I went to your link. I go into one of the programs ready to download ... and it is not mac compatible. Can I be bothered going to another one just to find out that it is not mac friendly .... :sigh: ... sorry, no. On the other hand, if you'd like to pop round and install and suitable program, I'm all for changing.

If you cant use it because you cant install anything on the machine - use Gaim instead and run it from a USB stick - get it here

Question is, have you deleted something you shouldn't have or do you want to make sure it's well and truly untraceable?

They will still be in your trash folder I imagine and as Hotmail is web based , the mails would also be in your browsers cache.
