    Life without ads... is what?  
    
    I think its great.   I denied all traffic from ad.doubleclick.net  (hehe)
    (and recommed all of you do the same, if they won't stop the port 7 scanning)
    I use Novell Bordermanager, (with bsdi gauntlet) and get a nice little
    Novell banner where the double click ad is suppose to load.  Looks and works fine.
    Also doubleclick is non-business related information, so It keeps people from going away from
    where they indended to go.

    yep, getting the same crap on my servers and doubleclick wont stop when
    asked, i like your idea and im now going to try it, btw if enough people are
    going to do this then it may be worth informing doubleclick (but then again
    life without ads...)
    
    cheers

    yep im enjoying it already, i get a nice proxy access denied message which
    im going to change to something a bit more entertaining...now theres an idea
    how about selling that space for adverts to the users, oops, got a bit
    carried away there
    
    btw i told doubleclick and they offered to place my firewall in their
    exception list, bless.
    
    if uve got the time, whats the novell like? ive moved almost entirely to nt
    from novell but i keep a few servers going just to keep my hand in, was
    thinking of looking @ border
    
    
    cheers
