Choosey users use JIF. Prudent IQ Test takers read the FAQ's before taking an online IQ Test!
For people reading the above statement who do not understand the "Choosey users use JIF" comment. Here's some insight... Jif is a popular peanut butter in the USA and probably well known around the world as well. However, "Choosey users use JIF" was a popular trademark slogan that JIF associated with their peanut butter. Throughout much on the 1970's and 1980's that slogan appeared in American Television commercials and everyone knew the slogan by heart.
So the first question is...Why start your FAQ section with a peanut-butter slogan?

We currently utilize two affiliate advertisers. The first is Roboform.
Roboform is an essential tool for surfing the web today. Most people have more than one email account, a my space account, a yahoo account, a hot mail account, need I go on?
Logging into these accounts can be time consuming but with Roboform, you type the information one time and that's it! It safely stores all your login and password information so the next time you want to login to your account just click on the Roboform toolbar and a drop down menu will appear with all of your secured logins and passwords and just click on the account you want to access and Roboform will go directly to that site and log you in.
Yes, but I have a free tool from Google or Fire fox and Internet Explorer can remember my passwords, so why do I need Roboform?
1.) Anyone who uses your computer or who has access to it can steal your passwords. 2.)There are malicious websites that can "Hi Jack" your web browser and reset your web page. 3.) There is technology out there designed to steal your logon and password information. However, it is safe and secure with Roboform.
