I think you might have missunderstood what He was telling you, I think he was trying to be helpful by letting you know that your ava wasnt showing, as there’s a red x in the center of the box.(the same kind of helpful as in telling someone there email is being shown)
Usually when someone tries to download a ava and something goes wrong thats what happens. His IE comment was just that that is the brower he uses, while using this forum, as apposed to firefox etc. I too use IE, and I see your red x, maybe its the same for firefox users, I have no idea.
I cant speak for him obviously, but perhaps you can see what Im saying. No one in here is spying on you, rest assured. I think its just a simply missunderstanding.
Apologies to Ardvark and anybody else I may have insulted on this Forum, I have since discovered that my wife unsuccessfully tried to upload a picture. As I very rarely use IE, I did not know about the red cross. Thank you Asyn for telling me to hie my email address, although I thought I had already done this.
By the way IE is used everywhere in Windows so it is best to keep it updated:
Windows Explorer uses IE as the Grapihcal User Interface (GUI)). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Explorer
