Quoting:

  The administration wants to add just four words -- "electronic
  communication transactional records" -- to a list of items that the
  law says the FBI may demand without a judge's approval. Government
  lawyers say this category of information includes the addresses to
  which an Internet user sends e-mail; the times and dates e-mail was
  sent and received; and possibly a user's browser history. It does not
  include, the lawyers hasten to point out, the "content" of e-mail or
  other Internet communication.
