I have been using OmniWeb for a little while now and have observed some extremely worrying behaviour.
I use Parallels to code in windows XP on my Macbook, and when I open up OmniWeb in MacOS the Visual Studio code window iin WinXP is being bombarded by random words, much like you would find in a spam email. It happens in spurts of a few words at a time, and when it does it a little box appears in the top left with some dots and a green arrow. It's very unusual, but so far I've only been able to track it down to Omniweb. I quit Omniweb, and it stops. I start Omniweb and the 'spamming' cranks back into life..
Here is a sample of the text it pastes...
"The one And if I may not have voted in less than I was raised the bar and you lose a few , the man says some of the storm you have to go for the two sexes and have enough to get all the time the things that need an One of the year that the San Diego will say on the size of some use of the nineteen -year high of one another. And so on the one on the hill on the only a one on the move will have the one of the one that you had hoped to have a home then I will walk The A well-known for , the young ..."
etc...
And as I say it does this a few words at a time, every few seconds to a minute spaced apart. It's doing more as I speak.
Has anyome else experienced this? I'm concerned to the point where I will be stopping using Omniweb soon if I can't find a solution :-(
Thanks, Mike.
