    Unique URL Tagging: The process of embedding Unique Identifiers into URLs contained in HTML content. These identifiers are identified by web servers on subsequent browser requests. Identifying visitors through information in the URLs should also allow for an acceptable calculation of visits, if caching is avoided.
    It appears to be related to tracking a user's susequent visits to a site. Yuck! I don't want people tracking me like this!

    I'm not going to assist anyone in this endeavor. If you really want to do this, it shouldn't be that hard if you have a database connected to your website. And that's all I'm going to say.
