Unfortunately, it's the client that goes out and finds the ad to
display. The server has no control whatsoever. The client needs to be
patched by Vavle to query the server that is being connected to and get
the specific banner for that server, rather than going to the generic
Content Provider banner server, or whatever it does today. On that
note, if somebody were to break the content provider banner server,
that would at least stop those ads. It must be Windows, right? It can't
be that hard... Not that I would ever do such a thing...
