The friendly search engines on the internet know a lot about you, more than what you think. Whenever you search something on the net, Google, Yahoo and Microsoft Live Search engines not just search and fetch you results, they also store a lot of information about every query you make.
This data is then archived to find out patterns about search requests from users. Basically, this means the search engines can exactly know the IP address where the query came from and can map this to the particular computer or user. Just imagine what will happen if this data falls into the wrong hands!
So the next time you search something, think. It knows your every move!!
Nice insight Ms. Sukhpreet, yes all the search engines have this pattern and every time there is query from your side it records the IP address and if it is done on a regular basis, one can know a whole lot of information....thanks for sharing the article.....
