OK, it doesn't work for eBay, as all of the images come from the same 
place, and some are needed for navigation.  But, try it on a banner 
add.  These rarely come from the same place the site and its images 
come from, and hence, blocking them will work.  Also, if you use Yahoo
Groups, most of the ads that appear in the middle of the page when you
view the posts via the web can be blocked.  Some can't as they are 
actually Flash.
