Meta data, in a nut shell is the history of any document, another words when you send it to me its tagged, i send it to someone and its tagged, all documents have this, windows has build in some meta data stripping software ( well was suppose to in vista ) however once it hits the inet, its all traceable, unless proxied correctly.
