MySpace question (no I am not a stalker).
For reasons too long/boring to explain, I need to check out an ex-friend's MySpace page. I'm a member there. If I look at this person's page, will they be alerted in any way to my activity? I need to be, um, discreet...:shrug: Sorry, but I'm a MySpace newbie and totally clueless.

1. No, as long as you don't leave a message or make a friend request.
I have been known to visit ex-friend and lover's myspace out of morbid curiosity lol.

2. Not that I know of
I see a lot of people posting bulletins, on tracking programs, that "say" keeps track of the people who view your profile...but I don't know for sure, my gut tells me its a fantasy.

6. No, you can track who visits your profile.
Username, IP address, operating system, etc.

spyspace.cc and some other sites can track it, too.

8. Well, this particular person probably wouldn't use a tool like that
unless it was readily available on MySpace.

Is it?

9. I didn't know that, there seems to be a lot of
bogus stuff that gets handed around, I take 100% of it to be rumor at best.

3. All they'll see is that they've had one more visit.
I've checked into the trackers, too. Apparently they're crap. Snoop away!

4. You expect me to believe this is a straight-up stalker case?

7. Okay...I guess I'll go try it.
If you stop hearing from me over the next few days, you'll know I've been found out!
