Incorrect. It's used for statistical and kickback reasons.. but doing so
on relatively large shockwave files is plain stupid if you ask me..

very very many sites query parameters are used to select which
page/image/file etc to display.

The correct approach would be to send the webmasters of sites using such

If you really want to do someting like this then it is best done via the
redirector interface. You should only do it when you know for 110%
certain that it is OK, which means a quite detailed ruleset with
per-site rules and what junk should be stripped away from those URLs.
