Just FYI, that site plants tracking cookies which send information back to it.

You need to check links before posting them indy.  I cannot follow you around and do it for you all the time.

Faith? This community? The same community with a sect that posted naked pictures of themselves in a sauna?



Skuzzy: I'll start paying attention. Sometimes I forget what community I'm posting to.

Thanks,

The simplest way to detect these things, for end users, will depend on the browser you are using.

If you use Internet Explorer w/SP2 and all updates installed, then disable (Tools->Internet Options->Security)  ActiveX, Java, any scripting, disable file downloads, and block all cookies (Tools->Internet Options->Privacy), you can get a crude report of what the site is trying to do outside of the normal displaying of HTML code.

It is crude, but would work for most folks.  I use some proprietary tools for detailed reports of things like this.
