+TX Hokie Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 I just noticed a tiny little square at the bottom of the Geocaching.com home page (and maybe others at the site) which links to the URL in the subject. Clicking it gives a page of what appears to be gibberish with links to all kinds of things. Any ideas what this is? I've read about single pixel "web-bugs" for tracking surfers, but I don't know if that's what this is. Apologies if this has already been discussed/explained somewhere else in the forums.

+Renegade Knight Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Cool idea. Now if only I could get my email program to ping the return address of incoming emails. All that don't return 'yup this email is valid' get junked. ============================== Wherever you go there you are. Link to comment
