Hi Carl,
I'm one of those "doing.a.project.for.my.degree.thatuniv.blah.edu"
students. I'm working on a way to get rid of those annoying doubleclick
(and others) banners based on Chris Brenton's idea ( see
http://lists.gnac.net/firewalls/mhonarc/firewalls.199912/msg00292.html ).
It doesn't involve the firewall directly, but uses dns to redirect to a
different server. If you're interested, drop me a line and I'll let you
know details.
