Can the ads not be suppressed in the forum or is it by design that needs a client side suppressal?

Here is an addition to the ....etc/hosts file links:
http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm
http://www.hosts-file.net/

We needed 2 more entries for complete suppression with the final ones being:

127.0.0.1 contextual.media.net
127.0.0.1 pagead.googlesyndication.com
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com
127.0.0.1 adservices.google.com
127.0.0.1 ssl.google-analytics.com 
127.0.0.1 www.google-analytics.com 
127.0.0.1 imageads.googleadservices.com 
127.0.0.1 imageads1.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads2.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads3.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads4.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads5.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads6.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads7.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads8.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 imageads9.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 partner.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 www.googleadservices.com
127.0.0.1 tpc.googlesyndication.com
127.0.0.1 www.googletagservices.com
127.0.0.1 googleads.g.doubleclick.net
127.0.0.1 adsettings.google.com

If these become insufficient, then we should not show it openly in the forums anymore if Google wants to smart it.
Caveat: Google's other programs may now check for such entries and lock you out of Gmail and their other applications - then just do not use Google anymore - there are many alternatives.
