one for sue56 and other computer buffs

Sue, I don't expect you to solve all my computer problems on-line, but can you explain what all the new bits and bobs are that have been a feature of every switching on of the computer, stp?

Needing to jump through hoops just to look at your emails or to consult the weather forecast or indeed to access the forum.

You need a password.....why?

Ghosty things appearing on the side, complete with shrouds......surely not Halloween yet?

Trackers....but I don't want to track anybody so why would anybody want to track me?

Please explain all....thanks[:)]

Password stops others getting at your stuff. People in shrouds are from Harry Potter, trying to take your data away. Ladies of a certain have to be tracked.??????
