I guess unless you want to pay a fee of some sort for a non advertised site you have to put up with it..

Noscripts is active, but PH is allowed. just checked in IE and cant see flash banner, same in netscape and that is a really old version

hosts reference edited smile seems it is very effective, maybe a way to add PH to the hosts file to let adverts on ph work smile

This filter might help: *.adbureau.net/*

Don't know whether it will remove the one you mean, but it will probably help anyway biggrin
