Thanks, I know that would work and maybe deleting all the cookies on this one would too. But that's a giant PITA. What prompted the test was a news story I heard today about shopping sites actually increasing the price of an item after they tracked you shopping it for a while. I think there was post here about someone being quoted a higher price on Amazon after looking at an item several times.

I guess the easiest and surest way would be to install software which would hide the IP address?

So who got what for Christmas? My daughter gave me pink and grey print jammies to go with my FX for her headgear.

I hate to stay ON topic, but you could always use the Tor Browser. It will HIDE your ip address from websites that you go to.It doesn't require an installation.

My middle brother emailed me today; he has a new grandson.
Born on his grandma's birthday 12/26.
Such a Christmas!

It is cold. I hate Edmonton. Did I say it was cold?
I made a hat for the dog so its ears won't freeze. It is that cold.

I'm getting another computer, like I need another thorn.
It's snowing, all is white. It's pretty.
Is there someone named Jack around here? I'd like to say "Hi Jack"
I don't understand threads. I don't sew.
Is a guy who sews a "seamster"? I was a teamster once, so I guess I was a guy who teams.
I see Pap. He's a nice fellow.

It's bitterly cold here too - the cold air is ALWAYS coming down from Canada - can't you people control yourselves - we need to invade and end this yearly invasion of our air space with the cold air that Canada is always dumping on us ( while they all winter in south Florida)

I walked the dog an hour ago.
My knees are still hurting from the cold.
I am a tropical creature--not made for this wretched winter.
