Privacy Concern

Thunderbird (version 2.0.0.9 (20071031))retains the names of newsgroups that have been UN-Subcribed from as a .msf file and a .dat file.

I am on News.Verizon.net for news groups. All the names of the groups that I am subscribed to appear as .msf and .dat files but when I un-subscribe the filename remains in the folder unchanged. If I am no longer subscribed to that group I see no reason to retain that GroupName as a file as it poses a privacy concern.

The path to this folder is

C:\Documents and Settings\MainUser\ApplicationData\
Thunderbird\Profiles\taomdz87.default\News\
news.verizon.net\”OldNewsGroupName.msf”

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600

Hi,
Firefox 3 Beta 3 is absolutely brilliant.
One thing: I don’t want to be fussy but I find quite anoying the fact that the “Home” button is not next to the address bar anymore… I don’t really see the point in having it on the bookmarks toolbar, especially if you don’t use the bookmark toolbar… At least it would be good to have the possibility to add it to the navigation toolbar.
Apart from that, nothing to say, this is just great.
cheers
tom
