Is 2o7.net Safe?

This is the server that Adobe uses for tracking personal information about users across multiple sites, including social networking and shopping sites. Adobe then combines that info to build a comprehensive profile of all your behavior and sells that collected personal profile information to other companies. Info below from Adobe's site: ***** When a company uses Adobe's analytics and on-site personalization services, that company tells Adobe what type of information it would like us to collect. Examples of the type of information a company may ask Adobe to collect are: - The URLs of the web pages you visit and the time spent on them - The URL of the page that showed the link you clicked on that brought you to that company's website - The searches you have performed, including searches that led you to that company's website - Information about your browser and device, such as device type, operating system, connection speed, and display settings - Your IP address, which Adobe may use to approximate your general location - Information you may provide on that company's website, including information on registration forms - Whether you clicked on an ad - Items you've either purchased or placed within the shopping cart feature on that company's website - Social network profile information, including photos, fan and like status, user IDs, age, and gender Some companies using Adobe services may send us information that allows them to identify you personally. Some companies may also buy additional information about you and then add that additional information to the information collected by Adobe's products on their websites. This additional information may include things like email addresses, account information, or Facebook profile information, including photos and usernames. If you look at your cookie settings in your browser, you may notice cookies from 2o7.net and ***** domains. These are the cookies Adobe uses to collect the information described above.

This domain is used by Adobe to place tracking cookies, on behalf of its customers, (it's customers being shopping sites that want to track where you go and what you look at while you are there), on the computers of visitors to customers' selected websites. This is a very questionable ethical practice.

This site is a common XSS (Cross-site Scripting) vulnerability attacker! It's script tries to run on all sorts of other pages on the web that are not affiliated with it. It is for the reason that Internet Explorer does not protect against such a vulnerability that we saw the zero-day attacks as of late which compromised reputable websites and user registrars (and also the reason that IE just isn't worth it!)
