> Just an FYI for all of you using any Yahoo groups:
>
> 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. Yahoo is recording every
> website and every group you visit. Take a look at their updated
> privacy statement:
>
> http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy
>
> About half-way down the page, in the section on cookies, you will
see
> a link that says web beacons. Click on the phrase web beacons. That
> will bring you to a paragraph entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network."
> In this section you'll see a little "click here to opt out"
> link that will let you "opt-out" of their new method of snooping.
>
> Once you have clicked that link, you are exempted.
>
> Notice the "Success" message on 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.
