What is a Web Beacon?
Its a Web Bug. [From Wikipedia: "A web bug is any one of a number of techniques used to track who is reading a Web page or e-mail, when [they are reading it] and from what computer. They can also be used to see if an email was read or forwarded to someone else or if a Web page was copied to another website. The first Web bugs were small images. Some emails and Web pages are not wholly self-contained. They may refer to content on another server, rather than including the content directly. When an email client or web browser prepares such an email or Web page for display, it ordinarily sends a request to the server to send the additional content.] To see the full description of Web Bugs, go to Wikipedia.com.
