While you're there, update your Yahoo tracking..this came to 78-C from Steve 
Ramm the other day but I haven't seen it on other lists.

Yahoo is Tracking Group Members         If you belong to ANY Yahoo Groups - be 
aware that Yahoo is now using "Web Beacons" to track every Yahoo Group user. 
It's similar to cookies, but allows Yahoo to record every website and every 
group you visit, even when you're not connected to Yahoo. Look at their updated 
privacy statement at http://info.yahoo.com/privacy/us/yahoo/details.html 
   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." On the 
page that opens, on the left find a box entitled "Opt-Out."         In that 
section find "opt-out of interest-matched advertising" link that will let you 
"opt-out" of their snooping. Click it and then click the opt-out button on the 
next page.         Note that Yahoo's invasion of your privacy - and your 
ability to opt-out of it - is not user-specific. It is MACHINE specific. That 
means you will have to opt-out on every computer (and browser) you use. 
  Please forward this to your other groups.
