Thanks.   Heck, even this swell VV site has little spies creepin round -- ainta coincidence ads match post content.  If it worries anyone, another thing to try for Firefox is TrackMeNot, a free cunning scheme to confuse the trackers.  Info at:

But of course, the more protection, the harder it is to move.  (Ever see the Beach Boys try to surf in a suit of armor?)  I wasn't able to post here until I sorted my cookies.  Chocolate chip, yes.  Bot-flavored, no.
