| Re: WEBTREND_ID Cookies Webtrends is a company that makes several tools for web traffic analysis and statistics. Mostly log analyzers.
It is a legit company and they are not in the spyware business. Most big web sites use their tools for hits statistics.
I've used in the past their log analyzer and you can make some pretty cool graphs and reports on your site hits.

| Thanks. Doesn't sound nearly as bad as I first imaged:
"providing our customers with useful analytics without infringing on privacy is of the utmost importance."

How about "WebSideStory" -- which I think is a subset of "Hitbox"? | |

| Re: WEBTREND_ID Cookies WebSideStory used to be also a hits and traffic analyzer but with a different purpose.
Their main usefulness was - and I'm talking about 3 years ago - syndication. For instance, you could display their statistics on your site as part of the content. Some of those statistics were useful for web developers and included the percentage of used browsers, screen resolution, color depth, etc.
You can see an example at EchoEcho on their right side bar, though I can see that they have changed to statistics provided by The Counter. They used to come from WebSideStory. | |
