Use it religiously. But, maybe I'm missing something. I have the problem
that it _always_ gets the link if the page only mentions it once. It
_never_ gets the link if it mentions it more than once. I find some,
like doubleclick or connect.247media.ads.lin4ads.com, will  be mentioned
in the source of the page multiple times with multiple variations. I can
put all of the possible avriations I want into the page. I still have
the problem that it will fail to block it if it's mentioned a second or
subsequent time.

Ideas? Possibly because of redirecting with squid (not likely)? Maybe
something I missed in the blocklist?
