I was recently made aware of Yahoo's use of "Web Beacons" that "allow a web site to
count users who have visited that page or to access certain cookies."  If you use
Yahoo, this may be of interest to you.

More information and the ability to opt out are found at: 
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/pixels/details.html

Some caution on opting out.  Clicking the link takes you to a page that notifies you
that you have successfully opted out.  As well, there is a "Cancel Opt-out" button
prominently displayed on that page that will *undo* this process.
