    4 cookies were blocked when i went there (All 3rd party)

    I saw someone say there are 7 trackers on the site! (They were all blocked by thier ghostery program (I wonder if those trackers ONLY CAN WORK if you have scripts enabled (I assume most rely on scripts)))

    i think they can only work with scripts, because when you disable things like java, the websites will tell you they cannot store cookies.

    if you are that concerned, use a web browser like firefox and use a do not track option, or private browsing.
