Is there any way to get around the loginin and user name to submit a site to biz express? I really don't want to give these people any more info than is necessary.

I'm thinking they want everyone to have a cookie sitting on their machine so they can track your searches and then use your surfing habits for their ultra expensive yahoo buzz.

I haven't seen an alternative way to do this but you could create a bogus account, submit, and then nuke the cookie. I agree with your privacy concerns....

Yeah, that's what I did and used a hotmail account. Amazing how many people use the nics "ihatecookies" and "ilovecookies".

Anytime I go to use yahoo I have to make sure all cookies are gone, otherwise they want me to buy me@myname.com. They pretty much flat out tell you that they track what you do. Amazing!
