Five years ago, when I bought my first computer, I couldn’t wait for it to be hooked up. When I was a Travel Agent, I worked on a computer for at least eight hours a day. When I sold the Agency, I didn’t have the money to buy a computer, and it was eight years until I could.

My server sent his technician man to come to the house and hook up my computer. I didn’t even show him to the door, I let my husband to that, because I was already on the net looking at every site I could find.

I found a site that paid every one that wrote for it, and I made $560.00 USD. The site went down, owing me $250.00. Some one I wrote with there asked me to join MouthShut.

I stopped reading books. The reviews were so interesting to read, that the first thing I do every morning and the last thing I do before I go to bed, is read the reviews on MouthShut.

I have asthma, and some times at night I find it’s better to sit up, by the open window, and read the reviews.

When I was finished reading the reviews, I’d roam around the net, looking for other places to read reviews. There are a few but they don’t pay an alien like me.

I did begin to write on one of them, just for the fun of it, but the difference is that the members are not as friendly as they are on MouthShut.

I began getting a lot of spam e-mail. I didn’t realize that all the banners and pop-ups gave that site, my e-mail address.

I decided to stop surfing the net, and just go to the few places where I like to read.

I find I have more time now to do other things. I paint chairs and saws, read books, go to the theatre to see plays, ballet and movies.

This still hasn’t cured my addiction to MouthShut, because it is the best site to both write reviews, read other members reviews, and make new friends from around the World.

Once an addict always an addict, and at least being addicted to MouthShut, is better than other additions I could have had.

Something To Help you:

When was the last time you cleaned your cookies? Pop-up stoppers, fire walls or erasures won’t stop you from getting spam .That’s how the spammers find you. You should be deleting them every day.

You can do this right now, and you don’t have to go off MouthShut to do it.

Go to start, then programs, and you’ll see a program that says search. Pick that and do a search for cookies. I think you’ll be amazed at how many you see. You should delete them all, (it won’t stop you from getting on MouthShut, after you do it.

My Final Thoughts:

The banners and pop-ups, are needed for revenue for the site. But they are enough to stop any addition to the internet.

We are lucky that MouthShut has less pop-ups than any other site I’ve been on. I would like to thank, Ms. Aarti Kapoor and Mr. Faisal Farooqui, for being able to manage a site without a lot of pop-ups.

Thank you for reading my review.
