  2. Re:Very Powerful Tool on Google Desktop Search Functions As Spyware · · Score: 1
    5. Google Desktop search is not spyware. I think the fear is how it integrates your desktop with the Google home page but the truth is no information is sent. At least that's what Google says. However, I looked at the source of what is returned and this is not done using client-side script or an ActiveX object, so I'm not sure how they pull this off. This sort of scares me. For instance, the path to one of my files is seen coming from the their server

    They pull it off using what is called a BHO(Browser helper object). Whenever you access www.google.com, their BHO taps into it and renders the page with the Desktop tab. Search "BHO" on google to know more :). And, that is why they work only with IE as it is a IE specific BHO.

  6. some are there..but fun is diminishing! on Are There Any Fun Tech Jobs Left? · · Score: 1

    i also joined a startup right after my graduation. For the last one year it has been fun. I forsee fun is soon going to be a lot lesser if not nothing at all...and then it will be the right time to work for myself. The funds are scarce and innovation is kept at bay. To keep oneself alive policy is preventing the "fun loving" gung-ho characters to take a back seat.
