Hello all,

The following was passed on to me one another list, I feel it should get a
tad more publicity
hence :

***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.
> 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 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.**
