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.
