Subject:  for Yahoo Groups users

Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo
Group
users around the net and see what you're doing - similar to cookies.

Take a look at their updated privacy statement:
http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/pixels/details.html

About half-way down the page, in the section "Outside the Yahoo!
Network", you'll see a little "click here" link that will let you
opt-out of their new method of snooping. I recommend doing this. Once
you have clicked that link, you are opted out. Notice the "Success"
message the top the next page. Be careful because on that page there
is a "Cancel Opt-out" button that, if clicked, will *undo** the
opt-out. Feel free to forward this to other groups.
