That is a little program that poster used. The only one who sees it is you. I've seen it before, not to worry!

It's no big deal since most websites, and definitely all forums will log the IP address.

They get my ISP but not not my internal IP address.

I think it's showing my router IP?

With FF you can right click the image and block images from the site or add it to adblock image which should block it from all sites.

That may not keep it from getting your IP address though. However blocking danasoft.com and www.danasoft.com in the Windows HOSTS file will completely block it regardless of the web browser used. I'm personally blocking it myself via the HOSTS file, not that I'm paranoid or anything it's just that I don't like the image itself.
