Note: The CardioLog Analytics SharePoint Feature will work only for master pages which contain the following control in the head section:
<SharePoint:DelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="AdditionalPageHead" AllowMultipleControls="true"/>

This control is included in the master pages for all SharePoint templates, besides the MOSS 2007 Publishing Site master page. 
Add this control to all MOSS 2007 Publishing Site master pages, right before the closing </HEAD> tag. Alternatively, you can also use a top master file which is included in all of the Publishing Sites master pages, in order to perform a single update.

Warning: The deactivation operation will stop data collection
