Hello,

fyi: I found the sitecatalyst software running on paypal.com to be
vulnerable to xss in the past. (unfiltered referer url was used as a
javascript value). Omniture/paypal didn't respond to my emails, paypal
fixed the issue after public disclosure.

Regards,
Thomas Pollet

This is from a current CNN home page:

Omniture is one of (many) sites that do tracking for companies .. like
what your mouse moves over, how long it stays there, how long you view
each page, etc. etc.

This is why you should disable javascript for any site you don't
explicitly trust (FYI: by default, NoScript for Firefox allows *msn.com
*google.com, and a bunch of other stuff you probably don't want).
