Ad blocking

There are several apporaches to defeating ads ( e.g. http://wiki.maemo.org/Ad_blocking ). I usually default to blocking ad domains through adding them to:
/etc/hosts
You can find a good ad-blocking hosts file here: http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm

To block certain sites (webpages/images/flash) from appearing on any of your applications you simply add:
0.0.0.0 facebook.com
For instance this would block everything that originates from facebook.com.

Reward: Shield of Hosts, ST +2 when fighting evil HTML and Javascript wraiths (blocks evil attacks and increases agility)
