Hi Hugh,

if you have Opera set to never accept cookies, then you're already blocking these sites.

The "whattheyknow" test can not check to see if doubleclick set a cookie on your computer. They can only infer that from seeing that you have visited a site they know is using doubleclick. They should probably include some tests for what your *actual* cookie settings are to give end users correct information :-)

HTH..

Subject: [OU] blocking doubleclick

After I ran this utility (which I recommend)
    http://whattheyknow.cs.wpi.edu/

I found these 13 third party tracking sites from my visit to csmonitor.com

    dblclick, g-analytics, quantserve, atdmt, omniture, scresearch, g-syndication,
    interclick, qmarket, specclick, zedo, specmedia, bnet.

I have Opera version 9.93 set to never accept cookies.
How can I block these sites?

Thanks,
Raleigh
