Will it protect me from "Web Bugs"?
|
"Web Bugs" (sometimes called Web Beacons or Anchors) are just regular images of a very small size that are included in regular web pages. The nasty thing about them is that they track you thru the use of cookies. X-Cleaner will clean all cookies, regardles regardless where they come from.
This system leaves the "Web Bugs" in place, but renders them powerless in tracking you.
"Web Bugs" are very low on the privacy threat scale.
