The Privacy Mode choices in the profile can be interpreted two ways. If you ask yourself, "do I want privacy" then you click the Yes radio button if you do or the No button if you don't. However if you read the explanation of the Privacy mode which says "Enables / disables showing email, ICQ number, AIM ID in profile..." and you look at the choices at the right which are "yes no", then you would logically(?) choose just the opposite like I did, and I didn't realize that I had made a mistake until someone pointed out that they couldn't email me. Perhaps the explanation should be something like "Choose Yes to prevent others from seeing your email, ICQ number, AIM ID in profile..."

Thanks for that suggestion. I have changed the wording as you suggested as it does make more sense and is more clear.

Cheers,
