    Harvey here. I have read many suggestions about using a proxy BUT in most cases, it is said that it is not the safest and it has draw-backs in using them. Could someone please briefly explain the draw-backs of using a proxy and why would someone suggest using a proxy when we know that it is not the safest??

    Proxies can be good or bad. I had an article...let me go find it...but basically if you use it for msn they can find your password and sometimes kids set up proxies on school computers. If you know the person who hosts it and you can trust them, like if you buy a proxy then it's safe, well even a kid could sell it on ebay, heh...Well if you want I can go still find the article.

    Regards,
