I've just checked one which Mark sent, the IMG SRCs say
us.adserver.yahoo.com and us.a1.yimg.com I don't know if resolving these t
127.0.0.1 will cause you any problems - I did manage to set one up once
which made ask jeeves stop working, as their search links were using the
same domain as banner ads :-( At least you can switch it off again if you
notice any difference!
