um.. I just tried going to https://www.doubleclick.net/ & got the

Privoxy blocked https://www.doubleclick.net:443/
See why

page back.

If the only browser you use is Firefox, maybe it might be better doing
everything inside the browser (although I've had problems with torbutton and
noscript breaking things).  But I use 3 different browsers; one of which is IE
and I don't think you can do much of any blocking/filtering there.

thoughts?
