    I have found certain banner ads, especially some clothing and teeth whitening ads to be highly annoying. So, I decided I would fight back. I located the adservers themselves and started putting them in my 'Always Block' list. Here are suggestions for you to get started.

    amgdgt.com
    atdtmt.com
    casalemedia.com
    doubleclick.net
    fastclick.net
    fimserve.com
    g.msn.com
    googlesyndication.com
    imvu.com

    Right infinity306, but I didn't want a broad range of blocks. Just banner ads.

    Blocking doubleclick.net will prevent you from using some websites (Apple's online store is one example I have personally ran into).

    I highly suggest using local tools, rather than OpenDNS for this. For example, a Mozilla browser with the AdBlock Plus and NoScript extensions.

    the above llst (from ambassador) caused a major 'oops' for me. I couldn't even get google.co.uk after using it. So I deleted googlesyndication.com and still couldn't get google. The only thing that brought google back was deleting the whole list.
