Google alerts

In case MG members and guests are not aware, Google provides a method of creating news alerts on any subject you may be interested in.

Just type in the subject you are interested in and your email address, in the boxes provided, and send it off. Google will send you a confirmation request email. Confirm your request by return email and you are in business. Easier to do than read this explanation.

Although they say it is a BETA test version, do not be put off by that. I have been using it for many months now with no problems.

I have just set up another (on Zone Alarm) as I note they have a new version of Zone Alarm Pro out and I would like to read any comments on ZA or ZAPro from now on. I never did get their previous version of ZAP working on AOL, but that is another story. Baz
