Following up on our previous mention of Download Deputy transmitting info from your Mac back to a host computer, Dagur Ben writes:

    "After I changed my email address in the Internet control panel, Download Deputy 4.1.3 would not launch. So I contacted Ilesa and they told me I had also to change my email address in their database - which I did (through the their registered user area). But still the program would not run. I had to install a fresh copy of the program and re-register it and then finally everything was OK.

    According to Ilesa, when you register, the program performs a license check. The license check sends your name, your private email address, and the serial number to their web server (with no message that it is doing this). It also modifies the program file so you have to use a new copy of it if you start using another email address."
