Hi Deb,<P>I saw your post on the update group. I am so sorry you are still going through all this crap. Is he a sex addict? Would you like the 2 x 4? <P>Please understand what I am going to say. I was not going to say anything but I just feel like I have too. I say this in love and as a warning.<P>I worked for a large Videoconferencing company. As part of the job, I would have to go out and test our products too make sure it worked with video cameras. Such as the one, your H purchased. Even though we promoted our home product as a means to stay in touch with loved ones and friends only about .05% of our customer base used it for that purpose. <P>I cannot tell you how many times when I would go out and test and write up our product I was solicited for sex. I have seen so many naked men just hanging out (literally and figuratively) wanting to find women to have video/phone sex with. <P>I would get requests all the time. I remember one time I was testing the bandwidth use and could not really quit at the time. This one guy was demanding to see parts of my body. No matter how many times I would end the connection, tell him I was working and the like he would pester me. I ended up showing him my big toe and said...now you have seen a body part that no one else at work has... He finally left me alone. <P>Please Deb, I am not trying to scare you. I am sure there are some nice clean sites for Video chatting. I know our sites are supposed to be "G" rated but it did not matter to most of our customer base. For every one good site, there are fifty bad. I think your concerns are warranted. I hope I have helped. I feel that I have made a bad situation even worse but I just felt compelled to tell you this. Please do not be angry. I felt you should know what is really out there and your little inner voice is correct. I am sorry.<P>I could have brought the product home and given a copy to my Mom with cheap/free cameras. I just did not and still to this day do not want it in my house. Tony had brought it up a couple of times. Tony has a problem with the internet and porn. I will not allow something that will enable it even more. Before we met he used our product and would call on-line live porn sites with it. I just know how distructive this is. And I am so sorry you have to work through this with Mike. I know the last time Tony brought up while we were in CompUSA I just lost it and LB all over the place. I did not care who heard or was looking. I am not having that crap in my house anymore. I know I can not monitor Tony 24/7 but I can at least temper what is coming in. <P><BR>((((((((((((Deb))))))))))) I know what it is like and I am so sorry you have to deal with this.

Paha,<P>While I doubt that Mike would show his ahem *package* online, I have no doubt that if a woman offered to show him hers he would take her up on it. <P>I know alot about people going on and wanting to see peoples parts, a friend of mine has 2 or three webcams set up and people are always wanting her to show them something. That is why I don't want Mike using it, the idea makes me ill.<P>Start carrying a brown watercolor marker in your purse , and if you ever run into anyone else as insistant as the man you told me about pops up turn away , draw a brownspot on your elbow and quickly place the elbow in front of the camera from the side. Then when they start going on about how much they liked what they saw, ask them why an elbow does so much for them and laugh !<P>Thanks for thinking about me Paha, I hope you're doing ok.<P>------------------<BR>Deb<P>Hepatitis C, Please educate yourself ! <A HREF="http://www.hepatitis-central.com/<P>In" TARGET=_blank>http://www.hepatitis-central.com/<P>In</A> memory of a very dear friend <A HREF="http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/wally.adp" TARGET=_blank>http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/wally.adp</A>

Hi Deb,<P>I am doing OK I guess. I have another sinus infection. I can not get rid of them. This is about the fourth one in five months. I can not shake them. <P>My two babies are doing well. I have two new Persian cats. They are the love of my life. I know you are against your kitten. I can understand your position though. I have to do a lot of picking up after Abby and at times it gets rather bothersome. Oh but when she is sleeping all snuggled up to me or playing with one of her toys she is just the cutest in the world. Then her brother Goliath is so easy going and mild manner. He loves to be brushed and cuddled. He climbs up on me and snuggles all the time. He is by no means as outgoing as Abby but I love them both.<P>I am glad you were not angry about what I said. I was really worried but I felt like I had to let you know what a lot of the people are like. BTW I have seen women flash me as well. I just say why would I want to see yours when I can see mine. Who are these people? <P>
