Web Tracking

Going to some web sites is private and some are not. To find out whether a site tracks your IP or not, unfortunately, you first need to go to the site (if it does track you need not go there again though). When you are at the site, right click anywhere on the page and a menu will appear. Select "View Source". A box of code will appear. Select the Edit menu and then Find. You can then search for "tracker" or "counter" and find out if the user of the site is tracking you IP information. The Internet is not a private place.
