Those figures are irrelevant because they are calculated by sending and receiving simple data packets, but the problem I'm talking about only occurs when actual websites using this tool are loading.


Oh so it effects the websites serving adsense ads ....... oh dear....... Google is getting far too big for its boots.

Adsense delivers adverts within a specified format, no more sinister than a website selling an advert banner to a local company. If you click, the website receives a few cents, monetising a community site (inc. this one) isn't a bad thing - someone has to pay the hosting, admin and development costs right?
Get Real! wrote: .. which of course results in deteriorating speed
What of course ?! When the clients browser renders the page from the webserver the small code snippet to load the advert runs .. the rest of the page doesn't wait for the adsense to load, otherwise your host file fix would knacker all sites with adsense embedded.

bull ! :roll:

as disgusting as any regular advertising, certainly no worse.

Fight what ? lmao

At least this bit is almost right, if the site you are hosting is using Adsense to generate advertising slots then regardless of browser or operating system then you will get the ads generated on the page.

Has your Internet speed (loading of pages) taken a nosedive lately?

It may be because of a new Google attack (advertising) on customers called “Google AdSense” so to kill it add these two lines to the end of your hosts file at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (in XP) using notepad…

127.0.0.1 pagead.googlesyndication.com
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com


If you don’t know what the hosts file is forget about it and suffer! :lol:


Regards, GR.


Why don't you just use Mozilla Firefox and download an addon called ADBLOCK?
