This isn't the first question about my posting, so I guess I better respond
here.  I have never been accused of being to subtle, but maybe I was this
time.  The URL for fls.cll.wayne.edu... if for a Mathematics Practice Exam
(MPE).  It doesn't really have any references to hackerdom.  Sorry for being
so obtuse.

Excuse my paranoia if it's unwarranted. But, is it possible
that if I access these sites, information about my network
could potentially be captured and used to identify me as an
HP3K user for the purpose of attempting to hack into my
system?  Is a hacker Web site a baited trap?
