If you're like me, you hate having to go through the browser garabge to get to a station's online strem. I just heard about this website that will find the direct stream for you. www.thestreamcentre.com/Happy surfing.

FYI: At the bottom of the list is this image. It signifies installation of the free version of some tracking software. If you do not like others peering over your shoulder; clamp down that firwall.

It doesn't install anything. It's a counter that records who you are and where you came from just like every server on the net (including this one). If you're concerned about that, you should cancel your internet service now.

Sorry if my reply was unclear. The image signifies "extremetracking" script is on the page you are viewing. It harvests info. This info, to be specific. extremetracking.com/Check%20All%20Tracker%20Features! Again tighten up your firewall before clicking the link I supplied.

Dolt, I understood you very well. My points still stand. Every web server on the net can harvest the same information about itself. This is just a little more obvious because the server doing the logging and the server the main page is running on are not the same.
There are a lot of nasty things online that can hurt your computer, so by all means be careful. Just be aware of where the risks really are.

CA, good we are basically on the same page here. There is good reason to have the info in dealing with malicious intent by visitiors to a site. This goes beyond that. A site systematically harvesting info for marketing purposes, should divulge and ask consent. The visit itself should not be construed as such. Most do not realize what their browser broadcasts(click and win).
I place the practice on par with rifling through someones trash once it is taken to the curb.
