Re: WOW tracking connection to Google!!
I don't mind my isp knowing what I do, but when they allow others to do so it becomes a huge problem. This basically amounts to them selling my info. They are getting paid by another party to view what I do. As I said, if it was WOW only then no problem. Others without my consent is wrong. No big deal though, I have them blocked and will keep a closer eye on their website for any further TOS changes.(as well as my cookies, so hands off, lol) |

| ohhh... c'mon JD you aren't going anywhere. 
Maybe once other ISPs around here actually start competing and offering faster speeds, or better channel lineups, then I'll look into them, until then I'm not going anywhere. |

To add to switchtechs post, that's the thing with cookiewall. It uses very little resources. That's one reason I like it. You can put those cookies in the KILL list so every time you "visit" that site, it gets deleted. If you just have to have a cookie, you can put one in the keep bin but everything else you want deleted, will get just that. But as it's been stated, using your browser is nice but I've found that no matter how you tweak it, sometimes, it will hinder you from some websites, whereas cookiewall doesn't stop you from going there, it just gets rid of the cookies after you get into the front door. I do review what new cookies I get in cookiewall and move them to the kill zone. But after a few weeks of surfing, you will have a pretty good list of cookies that get crumbled. My objective is to get rid of ANYTHING my ISP or other sites can use to help them make money off my clicks.  |

imrf has sank to new lows. If wow asked him to bend over he would. And probably ask you to do the same without question. |
