Yes. If someone is using Outlook Express or Netscape Messenger to read a newsgroup, then Web Bugs will also work inside of HTML newsgroup messages. A Web Bug can be used to log people who are reading messages in particular newsgroup. Such bugs might be used for example by investigators to track illegal activity such as trading in child pornography and copyrighted MP3 music files. Web Bugs might also be used to monitor people in extreme political groups.
