>Smart Tags are a controversial feature in Internet Explorer 6.0 beta that
>allows Microsoft to place their links in other people's websites (like
>yours!). Basically, IE Smart Tags use words on your site to create
>Microsoft
>links that could potentially lead your traffic to their sites (with, of
>course, no commission to you). This is a threat to all of us involved in
>affiliate marketing. Recently, Microsoft announced that Smart Tags will be
>pulled from the final release of Windows XP and IE6, but Microsoft also
>said
>Smart Tags might be resurrected in later versions. Smart Tags will remain a
>feature of Office XP.
>As a courtesy, I'm providing you with a meta tag you can use to disable
>Smart Tag recognition in Internet Explorer within your site. After adding
>this tag, Internet Explorer will not dynamically add new Smart Tags to your
>pages.
>The tag is:
><meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="TRUE">
>By the way, this is the kind of helpful info that you'll find at
>PartnerIndusty.com. Please check out this site, it's there to help you
>attain a higher level of success in affiliate marketing. As always, thanks
>for your partnership, and please don't hesitate to let me know if I can be
>of some assistance or if you would like to discuss any special promotion
>opportunities.
