My firewall's even more overpowered (Celeron 600, on dialup - used to be my main box till I got an Athlon) so I've just tried this. Easy to set up from /usr/share/doc even if (like me) you haven't got a f**g clue what you're doing, and not only does it zap ads, it seems to magically speed up response times across the board (even on the first access to a page). Cool! Thanks. Note: adzapper's in testing, but not in stable; but it doesn't depend on anything beyond stable, so it dpkg -i's straight in. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons Get my GPG key here: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
