I short-circuited to hosts and ipfw.

# ipfw show 2
00002     14       864 reject ip from any to 127.0.0.2

# telnet ad.doubleclick.net 80
Trying 127.0.0.2...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.2: Permission denied
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host


('course, DNS is better with multiple machines.  You could just burn a
single RFC1918 address for rejecting all the ad-type things)
