The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

I Need to Sue One of the Websites for Invading My Privacy - Help

Asked by F-J-K in Internet Security, E-Commerce Security, Security Software

Tags: website, password manager, managment, encrypted

Several months ago i found this web site "ce - rti  : fyd .. um ! ps" and was interested to buy a study guide of one of the exams just to confirm what i have learned during the few months. Here is the problem, i joined, i paid via paypal, i got the materials but it wasn't what i wanted! They claimed the practice exam engine comes with a Study Guide in PDF. I found the study exam practice engine but i didn't find the Study Guide which is what i mainly wanted to have.

I disputed the transaction via paypal, but nothing really helped. I called the bank to dispute the payment and ask for full charge back. Later within 2 months, which is today, i got a letter from the bank saying the case is closed to his favor since  the seller reacted and sent documentation that i had such as the full login info, receipt, etc.

Here is the deal, the bank sent me a letter with all the documentation that the seller faxed them. What a shock! The first paper had my Username and *Password*. The password in plain text! So it's been exposed by the seller. In addition, it's been sent via fax to the bank. The bank employees saw my password surely! So my password was all over! The password means alot to me because it can give them access to some of other more serious accounts.

I'm really offended, is there any Web Police or similar services?! The seller is the one to blame, i believe a password should not be seen by anyone. No one ever can know the password except the owner. Web moderators or admins user different means to access the user's account because no one knows the password except the owner! Therefore,"ce - rti  : fyd .. um ! ps" moderators , in some way or another, steal people passwords and they have the potential/chances of using it against other owner accounts such as the email associated with one username or so.

Again, guide me please! What should i do? I'm very annoyed, i got out of it safely, surely others don't and probably won't since they are not aware of it yet.

"ce - rti  : fyd .. um ! ps" i did it that way not for the SEO to catch it.

Regards,
F-J-K
