    There's nothing obviously odd in there, they look like the normal headers in use.

    That's always been there, you just haven't seen it. I'm a bit curious about the presence of the X-OSSproxy headers, since that's not natively coming from boards.ie.

    Check your task manager, under processes, and look for something called ossproxy.exe, and tell me if it's there.

    Hi yeah, Well UI updated everything and looked at the task manager thing and it wasn't there. I was sort of more worried that I was getting info re Boards that if I had a clue what I was looking at , I could do something with it, If you know what I mean.
    The x-osspoxy thing wasn't there so, I think that's a good thing?
    Thanks again,cathy

    Ossproxy is a component used by some adware, which is a tad concerning. You may wish to visit the security forum, and check the stickies and give your machine a once over:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=24


    And the HTTP headers aren't exactly private or secret info, since they're sent publicly with every single request.
