I read a recent article about 'web bugs' which can be used to obtain
more personal info about you than cookies can. See the "Cookie Leaks
Security Hole" and "Web Bugs FAQ" at

>From the Web Bugs FAQ:
1. What exactly is a Web Bug?
A Web Bug is a graphics on a Web page or in an Email message that is

pixel in size.
Sorry for off-topic post.
