"Privacy Report" icon (looks like eye with do not enter sign) shows
intermittently on IE6 task bar during internet session in several web sites
(including my yahoo home page). Does it mean my computer/browser is being
tracked/hijacked or has a Trojan? I scanned it with updated Norton
Antivirus, Ad-Aware and Spy-bot, and there is only occasional
tracking cookie found (DSO exploit), which I delete right after the scan.
Thanks for your advice.

That eye is a symbol to warn you of cookie movement. Nothing to be
afraid of. In fact I think (I don't use IE) but I think you can double
click it and you will be given information on what's going on. But all
in all, nothing to be worrying yourself over. But keep running AdAware etc.
