Tracking through email?

[mikemant]

I am not sure if this one has been answered here yet. I have a yahoo email that I was using on a suspended ebay account.

If I log in to that email acct. while using my stealth windows user acct (cookies enabled) can ebay link me if i dont open any messages from them? Will the somehow read my cookies and find that I logged into that email acct.?

As long as you don't open any eBay messages you will be fine.

With email tracking they detect the IP address that opens the email, so you could use an email client to read emails as text only to avoid links.

They can even track you by the food you eat.

Thanks for the reply. I am new to this (as you can see) and I am not sure how the tracking via cookies etc. works. A lot of info to process at first. I would rather ask a dumb question than get anotherdamn account suspended. Thanks

I am new to. It's just.. everytime I order the big mac at mcdonalds, i get suspended or limited.

Is it the ordering if the big mac or is it the actual act of eating it that gets you limited or suspended? Do you get the same effect with the fillet of fish?

I wouldn't worry to much about it, but I would recommend live to organize all your emails and disable images to be safe. I read my emails from a banned ip and comp no problems.
