Publisher's description of Flash Privacy
From RankAttack:This software hides all Web browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera, Netscape) and instant messengers (MSN, AOL, YAHOO, ECT) just by clicking a hotkey while you are surfing the Net. When seconds count you can quickly reach for the F10 key and all potential privacy breaches will instantly vanish from view. All screens will disappear from view and also disappear from the toolbar. There is no way someone else can restore the windows without knowing the right hotkey to press. Once your privacy is no longer in danger you can press the F11 key and all of your windows and messages will reappear on screen untouched. This allows you to instantly protect your screen from prying eyes. This program is very easy to use and comes with very clear instructions.

Editor's review of Flash Privacy
stars
- "Flash Privacy"
- Version reviewed: Flash Privacy 1
This program quickly hides whatever you're working on, but it's just not worth the cost.
Flash Privacy's publisher mentions the use of a hot key combo, but in reality, it uses the F10 and F11 keys. The F10 worked to make the browser disappear. The F11 key brought it back up, though it was slow to load. For $29.95, you would at least expect to be able to customize the hot-key combination. While the 5-day trial is plenty of time to figure this simple program out, it's pretty stingy compared to similar programs.
The program works, but a few more bells and whistles would have justified the asking price.
