it's not about trust (who in his wright mind would use crappy IE to
browse the net .. beside some PHBs), its about the content. I don want
to click on any nytimes links because they need registration, i dont
want to click on any "****memore.biz" links (at least not wright now
:P) and so on.


Pozdrawiam.
 
please dont do that, i refuse to click on any tinyurl link, i want to
know what it is before clicking

I think we can trust Yousuf enough not to be posting a malicious link
here. Though admittedly, FT seems to like cookies a lot, I had to put
four more URLs into my black list from it alone :pPpp

L.Angel: I'm looking for web design work.
If you need basic to med complexity webpages at affordable rates, email me :)
Standard HTML, SHTML, MySQL + PHP or ASP, Javascript.
If you really want, FrontPage & DreamWeaver too.
But keep in mind you pay extra bandwidth for their bloated code

Why do you think that a long URL isn't a redirection to a nytimes article?

Simply reject all cookies from such sites. ;-)

BTW, it didn't even come up here, so...

At least you know that a long URL isn't just a direct link to
goatse.cx!

True, but I'm with Rush. I don't like the tinyURL's. There's no
reason to use them, when proper (and free) newsreaders can post long
and unbroken URL's.
