'Hi Folks,

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

(http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/beacons/details.html)

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.

Feel free to forward this to other groups.

Cheers,

Robin

Thank you for this info. I have taken advantage of it, and forwarded

it to many others.
