No, it's not bogus; that's an advertising agency trying to
mon itor your movements. It can report home all kinds of
things. For details, do a Google search on Avenue A, Inc.
Actually, I think I read about it on SB's site, too.
I set it to not ask and just refuse it because once, in a

do. Lots of files and registry entries happened in just the
