Please read below to find how how to keep from tracking the websites you visit. ~ LaDonna ~ ************************************************************** " is now using something called " Web Beacons " to track users. Hello, If you are at all concerned with people knowing where you go or what you do on ......check it out.

" is now using something called " Web Beacons " to track users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going - similar to cookies. Take a look at their updated privacy statement: http://privacy./privacy/us/pixels/details.html About half-way down the page, in the section " Outside the Network " , you'll see a little " click here " link that will let you " opt-out " of their new method of snooping. I strongly recommend that you do this. Once you have clicked that link, you are opted out. Notice the " Success " message the top the next page. Be careful because on that page there is a " Cancel Opt-out " button that, if clicked, will *undo** the opt-out. Feel free to forward this to other groups. Of course, if you don't mind recording every website and every group you visit you should ignore this message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
