Re: Is Microsoft about to buy Claria/Gator ???
While it's too soon to pass judgement on the sale Mike Healon brings up some interesting past history in the current newsletter. Take it with a grain of salt but keep it in mind if the sale goes through.:
»www.spywareinfo.com/newsletter/a···ne30.php
"In the past, Microsoft's MSN web site was caught using redirection and session ID tracking to track visitors across a range of Microsoft owned web sites, even if all sites involved had their cookies blocked by the user.
The Windows Media Player program was caught red handed sending the name of movies viewed to a Microsoft server, along with a unique tracking number. After Microsoft initially denied doing it, packet logs were produced proving that it was happening. Shortly thereafter, this behavior was stopped. "
