Why would anybody sign up to do that one.  Do I want somebody following me around all day?  No.  If someone is following me. at least I don't know about it.

I am not sure what survey you are talking about but I definitely would not want anyone following me around all day either. I usually make sure that I delete my cookies daily so that this won't happen.

It depends what it is.  There are some Keynote Connector surveys that install a piece of software, but those don't bother me and I uninstall the software after the survey is done.

Any software I have to install on my computer indefinitely, or even for a certain number of days, is a deal-killer for me though.

Heads up doesn't matter what survey you do. It only takes your name,address,phone# etc... To send your information into 3rd party viral. Armed w/your info, it can be attached & tagged for others to see. Example, I signed up for this baby doll site for my nieces. I just put in my name,address,age,b-day,but I refused to give up my phone# & SS#! next I get an emails for offers from the site & didn't even fill it out completely!They have the technology to track your blogging & spending habits!

I don’t bother to complete such offer(s) to install toolbars, monitor activities etc. even if they paid me to.
