TIPS FOR USING THE ONLINE DETECTIVE
If you get an error message that says 'Site not found', first verify that the URL is exactly as listed in the document. We have found that sites sometimes restructure their pages. In this event, try gradually deleting the URL from right to left, example:
http://www.onlinedetective.net/section5/phone/listings/reverse/index.html
then try:
http://www.onlinedetective.net/section5/phone/listings/
then try:
http://www.onlinedetective.net/section5/phone/
then try:
http://www.onlinedetective.net/section5/
then try:
http://www.onlinedetective.net/
Using this method you will be able to get to a starting point to start exploring the web site. If you encounter an error message like 'server not responding', try it again in a few minutes, or hours. Sometimes servers can be temporarily down, suffer heavy traffic, or be over their daily quota/limit. If you find a site that you feel is permanently down, please send e-mail to zomkiller@prodigy.net.

LEGAL NOTICE
The dissemination of the information contained in this report is totally legal. However, the usage of information for illegal use or illegal gains is just that - ILLEGAL. We have provided you information. Use it ethically AND legally. If you are not sure, check the laws where you live. And, please, do not violate or encroach upon the rights of others. And don't think you are completely anonymous on line. Almost nothing on line is truly private. That goes double when you use the office computer to access the internet. Employers can legally read e-mail sent to and from your corporate account. According to the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, 'the employer owns the e-mail system and is allowed to read it's contents. ALL messages from your terminal can be subject to monitoring by your employer.'
Web site administrators can gather surprising amounts of information about who you are and where you are from just by scanning the headers on packets that arrive from your machine.
