I have a website and I want to add a link to another web but I do not wish
the webmaster of the other web to know that the visitors came from my
site... Is there any way of fooling the server logs from finding out where
the visitors come from?

I thought a service that shortens the URL like http://www.gnu.vu would do
the job but I have been told in another newsgroup that is not the case and
there is no way of stopping the server from logging where the visitors
came from, I would like to make sure that is the case, it seems very
strange to me that I can't stop that.
