** Why enter twice Explanation of **
 * E-Mail addresses and Passwords **

When you fill out a form on the NET to subscribe to a News-Page etc. they ask you to enter your address in twice. Why you ask ?

The purpose of this is to make sure that it was entered correctly. Maybe your finger slipped when you were typing it in the first time. If you didn't have to enter it again, you wouldn't receive any of the informative E-Mails from the Web site ( If your finger had slipped for example ).

However,, since you typed your address twice, the Web site knows if everything matches up or not. It also ensure that the web site knows that it is a genuine address and not a fake one.

If the Web site had to deal with a lot of phoney addresses, it would take longer for them to e-mail their information out to all of their customers. In particular if they have a huge list of clientele.

If the e-mails with the fake addresses are able to go through, it holds up the process, wastes disk space and it just takes up too much time.

Re- the password , You are required to enter your password twice for security purposes. Web sites want to know that you aren't trying to scam anything from them and by you putting in the same password twice gives them reassurance,

By typing the password twice it is also protection for you, because you can be sure your password is correct once you type it out twice.

So, next time you're filling out a form online, don't feel hassled by having to duplicate your e-mail address and password.

Feel safer knowing that Web site is going to protect you.
