If you belong to ANY Yahoo Group - be aware that Yahoo is now using "Web Beacons" to track the Internet navigation of every Yahoo user. It's similar to cookies, but allows Yahoo to record every website And every group you visit -ANYWHERE- on the Internet, even when you're Not connected to Yahoo.
To stop this privacy invasive surveillance, go to Yahoo's updated privacy statement at:
http://info.yahoo.com/privacy/us/yahoo/details.html
About half-way down the page, in the section on cookies, you will See a link that says WEB BEACONS.
