The Hunt Is On!

Friday, May 15th, 2009

I’ve already walked down the top 25 sites in Alexa and found most of the web bugs on their homepages. If you’d like to help I’d really appreciate it :)
To join in (and assuming you use Firefox) download Ad Hacker and visit your favorite sites. On each site click the Ad Hacker “watcher” link, then “Javascript from N servers”, then a domain name, then script URL, and then finally “Add rule for this Javascript”. This will fire up a web page to edit your new web bug rule. If you’d like your rules to be included in the default package Ad Hacker uses fire me an email at feedback@adhacker.com
