This doesn't directly answer your question, but Flash banner ads can be written to conform with clickthrough tracking: http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/rich_media_ads/articles/flash_ad_kit.html http://www.macromedia.com/resources/richmedia/tracking/designers_guide/ http://www.macromedia.com/resources/richmedia/tracking/adserving_guide/ Perhaps you can require that Flash banners conform to these standards?
