Jim (and any other FReeper that hasn't done it) you need to go to this link download and install Ghostery (hope you're using Firefox) - that is the best way to stop anyone from tracking your browser use.
I can't agree more. It's simple to install, and hovers up in the corner of your screen, almost unnoticed. Simple to use, too. Once you've killed a tracker, it won't work on any site that uses it. After about a week of killing trackers, there are hardly any new ones that show up.
BTTT .... thanks for the link!
