It seems to me that the accessed URLs are revealed to Alexa, if the

appear to stop. Is this a correct diagnosis?
Might be. There was a bug about that, dated sometime pre-nsbeta3, IIRC.
I need to disable this "feature" for all users. That is I need to
disable it in a way that causes all new profiles to be clean so that
they don't send over access information. Is it sufficient to delete all
references to the panel in the default panels.rdf file? Or do I need to
remove the actual .js and .xul files from comm.jar?
(I think What's Related shouldn't be enabled by default--especially
because URLs are sent to Alexa even when another panel is active.)
I disabled it for Beonex Communicator. diff below. There's also a
local-panels.rdf, don't remember what that one did, but I didn't modify
it for Beonex Comm.. I don't think, you need to remove the panel source
itself.
