What secrets does your body hold? Long legs can signal cancer risk, for one. And low testosterone may up your chances of a stroke.

The Web is a great source for deciphering other physical characteristics, too. Search reveals that red hair is linked to endometriosis; long ring fingers can point to arthritis; and if you pack on the weight in midlife, you could be at risk for this.

The plight of the human body has inspired many celebs and artists to offer sound bites. Guess:

"The body says what words cannot." (Who said it?)

"I finally realized that being grateful to my body was key to giving more love to myself." (Who said it?)

"When it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin' to do with my selection." (Who sang it?)

We may not want to admit it, but when it comes to creeps, Web search reveals that we want to know more. Undoubtedly against our better judgment.

And then there's the father, profiled on "Tyra," who drove his daughter to her new job as a prostitute.

Or this Australian man, who allegedly had a child with his own daughter.

Finally, another popular search: "The Billy Letters," which includes correspondence both to and from Charles Manson. Definitely creepy.
