FYI:
Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo Group
users around the net and see what you're doing - similar to cookies.
Take a look at their updated privacy statement:
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/pixels/details.html
About half-way down the page, in the section "Outside the Yahoo!
Network", you'll see a little "click here" link that will let you
opt-out of their new method of snooping. I recommend doing this. Once
you have
clicked that link, you are opted out. Notice the "Success" message at
the top
of 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.
