This has been my day for AT&T issues and Yahoo BS... don't get me  
started on that!

Question what is a web beacon?

Is it needed?

Why?

And how does it compare to a cookie which we can dump at at will?

I do not think this is true of web beacons!

And yes, I do find  the op-out button and made good use of it

Last question... why would anyone want to op-in to such a devious  
program?

What does one loss by remove oneself from the web beacon program?

Later folks
