Subject: Yahoo Web Beacons

Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo Group
users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are
going...similar to "cookies."

You can choose to opt out of this.

Take a look at their updated privacy statement:

http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/

Scroll down to the section entitled "Cookies" and click the "Web
Beacons" hyperlink. A second page comes up.

About half-way down the second page, in the section "Outside the Yahoo
[etc.]", 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 at the top of 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
Yahoo recording every website and every Group you visit you may ignore
this message.
