I am pretty sure they have to be signed it to see who's looking. I you have it set to private and accept only friends can view, and he can't see your info... of course, don't accept him as a friend .
Even if I had a myspace, if I log on, I can't view yours unless you are not set to private and you set it to "only friends can view".
There should already be a tracker.. but again if they are not logged in it will olny show, I think, the state in which they are from.

Delete your MySpace profile, set up a new one with not so much info and set it to Private. The e-mail your friends to let them know where you went to (not the creep). Of Todd57k's answer, wrong, those are two well known spyware sites that implant fake security alert messages on your PC to encourage you to buy more "protection" from them, don't go to those sites. If you have anti-spyware then check your programs list of banned sites, they should be there. Check out SpyBot S&D. That's where I saw them listed. That can be found at http://www.safernetworking.org and is free. Myself, I would just delete the MySpace profile and be done with it. MySpace is getting creepier every day and becoming the new home of SPAM. Those who aren't selling links to web-cam sites are showing off their bling-bling in popularity contests and/or are stalkers. There's very few nice people left there.

you can still have your myspace page and be incognito. and you can be smart and not put so much personal info on it. i laugh at how umn... well... stupid people are. my daughter has a page and she is unaware that i know of it. i know exactly where she goes and what she does on most days of the week. all i have to do is check out her friends pages also. she wonders how i always know lmao and someday soon i will tell her because if i can track her whereabouts - so can every blasted pervert who has a computer. i hope it scares some sense into her and YOU to exercise a little common sense when posting things on the internet no matter what site you are on.

Without going to private there will be no way to shield your page from him or anybody else who wants to check you out. You may have to meet new people by searching for them yourself. it's the disadvantage to pages like MySpace. In fact I just went to your page. Think about how creepy that can really be.

If u set ur profile to private he cannot look at your page unless he is your friend. when ur logged in,go to accountsettings and then privacy settings, you can change all kinds of settings to make uur page more secure.oh and there is no such thing as a page viewr tracker so if u get an add about it,its a scam,u have 2 pay 4 it,or its a virus. good luck :)

just private your web page,so the only way he will be able to view you is he has to add you,to view anything,that's one way to private yourself.other things you can do is delete allot of the information on your page that you may not want to give out.my space trackers are stupid,from what i hear most of them don't work or they require you giving out your info and what not.there isn't much you can do,but by doing small things like what i stated could help you.

"MySpace Tracker" are scams, just like the "free iPods". Set your page to private or don't post so much personal info about yourself

no offense to you----
if he "knows a little too much info", it's because YOU put too much on your page.
start looking for a new job, take anything "personal" off of your myspace (delete and start a new page if necessary), and if you see the guy apparently following you go straight to the police and file a complaint and restraining order.

Go to his page and block him, but I would highly recommend setting your account up to be private....better safe then sorry...
Plus, thos tracking things don't work unless they are on your friend's list.

yes you can track, but go to settings and change to private. Beware there are freakish people on myspace!
