you can see where the dot came from by right-clicking and looking at its address (depending on your web browser)..
Just had a look at a couple of other sites hosted by easyphpbb.com and they all have them - so I guess it is the hosting company who has put them into the website templates..
The dot itself isn't just a image - as your browser loads it it actually runs a script on the amazonaws server which probably makes a note of your IP address, browser type, referring website, will most likely attempt to give you a 3rd party cookie and do other useful stuff for collecting usage statistics, then it spits out the image back to you... |
