Not to change the subject, but i did find mapping stuff like: ssl.google-analytics.com pagead.googlesyndication.com www.doubleclick.net to 127.0.0.1 Gives a considerable speed boost especially with low-bandwidth, low-memory, and slow processor situations. (most ads are big flash files.) I use it with high speed. You do get "missing images" and "file not found" errors on the pages, but you aren't downloading ads, your tracking cookies aren't timing out, and rasterization of the pages is a lot faster. I just use a host list, but a dns server is a lot cooler and simpler way to maintain it acrossed several machines. You can find premade lists on the net. I have always wondered how much the university network bill would drop if everyone on campus used it.
