This page was prompted by a visitor interest in Scroogle and a ZDNet Downloads Digest article
It seems that all you have to do to feature on this website/page is to pay the money.
Not that there is anything wrong with paid advertizing, but it needs to be stated for what it is and not a veiled presentation implying an endorsement.
As far as a product goes, the NoTracks Anti-Tracker software is probably a little redundant as there are probably at lot of other things you can do to protect your identity and what you have been up to on the Internet. My post here was rather more aimed at the fact that just because a product is seen featured on ZDNet's Downloads Digest it does indicate any sort of review or endorsement by ZDNet.
If your concern is websites tracking you, such as Google with Analytics code used by a vast number of sites (including this one) then your best defense is to turn off JavaScripting in your browser.
If you are worried that others using your computer will know where you have visited I would suggest that if you are savvy enough to find the NoTracks software than you are more than capable of removing your tracks from you computer. If you are looking for a method to do this automatically then NoTracks may works for you. I am of the opinion that "less is more" and the fewer programs that I can install on my computer the better.
