I use (formerly Junkbuster) which is an HTTP proxy that does all kinds of filtering on your coeinctnon: it strips out ads, cookies, and can identify and remove these web bugs before your browser sees them, among other things.Of course, you have to enable cookies for sites that you actually log in to (record stores, etc.) So they can track you all they want.So if you actually use Yahoo, you're kinda screwed, because they already have info about you, and they're going to share it far and wide with whoever they care to, whether you click the link or not.
