I'm not the spokesman of People&Computers, but if I was asked to guess why they need it, I could guess easily: This is the only UNIQUE number, that EACH of us has, and NEVER changes (contrary to e-mail). In the past, when you registered, any small change caused your record to duplicate. For example, in my case it caused me to "appear" 4 or 5 times in their database. So they started to require the ID and use it as the UNIQUE KEY of their database, and this problem has been solved. -- Eli Marmor [EMAIL PROTECTED] Netmask (El-Mar) Internet Technologies Ltd. __________________________________________________________ Tel.: +972-9-766-1020 8 Yad-Harutzim St. Fax.: +972-9-766-1314 P.O.B. 7004 Mobile: +972-50-5237338 Kfar-Saba 44641, Israel ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
