Privacy on the Net
Many thanks to Keir, my awesome little tech-head, for posting these links on his page so I could steal them for you lot. Cool little add-ons for Firefox.

Do Not Track (tell 3rd party sites you do NOT want to be tracked by Blocking them) – How it works, it blocks the 3rd party cookies from getting into your system and prevents 3rd party ad’s from appearing on your webpages.
Fantastic add-on for FireFox. Click here for this one.(This one also works for Chrome, Safari and IE.)

crap….. I am using googlechrome…. but, thanks for the heads up .
I’m still using both : )There are some sites I can’t view (google sites) with it, but it’s just a click to disable and re-enable
DNT+ installed for about 2 months. 18,000+ attempts blocked so far.
facebook was tracking me simply because i visited a page recently here that has a facebook like button on it. i just took care of that.
I just edited this blog Z Man… saved the image, deleted it from the blog, then reinserted it using Xanga’s uploader. What would I do with out you, lmao?!
I’m over 30,000 now! I got an email from Ladbrokes (online bet taker) saying that if I wanted to continue using their site, I had to allow cookies LOL I was so tempted to e-mail em back saying ‘pi$$ off’ and go to William HIll haha!! I like to back a donkey from time to time (once every couple of months) to see if it wins)
Last of the big spenders here, £1.00 each way. LOL.
@scotsdave - ”last of the big spenders” lmao!!!
I’ve actually got them both disabled now – not because they didn’t work, but because since we got cable, we’ve downloaded “Folding at Home”, and they seemed to fight with each other. Which reminds me… I must post a link to Folding at Home, lol!
Yeah…it’s kind of scary how available information you put out over the net is :/Good luck on MXA!! XD
