=They're not really for you. They're for your users.=

Maybe I should put 'm back...
I'll consider it when my stats announces a 1000 a day.

I'm more outdated than Windows NT 4.0
But thanks for the advices, I understand the system a little better now.

They're not really for you. They're for your users.

You're right, or partly. I don't see 'Share This' or 'Twitter-Facebook' icons on any of my blogs, EXCEPT this one:
http://blogwasp.wordpress.com/2011/08/08/way-way-down-in-the-netherlands-1/#respond
It literally reads:
'Share This: Facebook and Twitter.'

I checked 'Settings - Share Settings' once more. What strikes me again is that the whole top row of 'Publice' icons are in the 'Connected' mode. Did I activate them by accident? Come to think of it; I remember a little experimenting on that dashboard page...
However, I see no option to get 'Disconnected' back.

I'm totally not interested in communication systems like Facebook and Twitter, know nothing about its working ways and I guess I have to have a Twitter/FB account somewhere anyway.
But in Blog Stats I found a few incoming email addresses in 'Subscribers', and they were clearly sp*m. So via the Facebook/Twitter feature people are contacting me?

But again, this is exclusively on my recently started weblog, none of the other ones show these connectors. So I assume they're some new WP feature,

If you are referring to the Facebook and Twitter buttons in your comments box, that's another story: they cannot be removed.

P.S. The link in your last response does not work for me (fortunately!) as it is your own dashboard.

I just wondered about it.

Yet Facebook-Twitter-Yahoo-Messenger-LinkedIn are Connected.

In the Example page you gave the 'Show a Button line' is checked, but not on my page.
So I don't understand.

I'm not sure if this link will work for you, but here is the page:

In regards to the "Congratulations" message, see here please.

After posting an item I am send to a Congratulation! page. Is it a new feature? I never saw this on my other blogs.

Now this page makes it possible to add Share This to the post. I did not activate it, I did not drag the utensils to the box, yet there is a 'Share This Twitter and Facebook' at the bottom.How do I get rid of it? I don't see a delete option.
