I found this on the CNN site. It appears to do alot of the nice things ZA did (filtering cookies and such from advertisers) but without the potential spy-ware. Here are the links. I haven't tried it myself yet. THe main limitation I see is that it only works for IE 4 and 5. No netscape or IE5.5. So...

Ok downloaded and installed last night.... so fars runs with no problems. You would not beleive the number of sites running tracking software. Tells you what site is connected with a particular tracking company. Lets you know if you are in full semi or non private mode. Only runs when you are running IE 4 or 5 (says on the page no support for NS or IE 5.5)

Will keep you all posted as far as the program goes.

Thanks for the heads up. It looked nice but I haven't had a chance to install it myself. It sounds great. I have been a bit wary of this stuff too since the program Proksi for sharing internet connections killed my master boot record. I got that from download.com. That';s not why I didn't install it yet though. I am not asking you guys to test it for me. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif
I'll try it out soon.
