    Four or five years ago there was big fuzz about web bugs. Whatever happened to those concerns? Do they not exist anymore or does adblocking/antispyware software clean pages/emails from them nowadays?

    Thanks. Good to hear. I should have known it was the notorious JS again :)
    Javascripts are banned in my browser for the majority of sites since the last couple of years.
