But we have been encouraged towards suspicion by the actions of both Phorm and BT so be suspicious - I would be!
I am blocking it network level and it only way that it worked. bocking webwise.com ona fresh install blcoked about 70% of them. so i decided to block webwise.com and it assicoted ip from my IPCOP urlfilter and block have it translate the DNS to IP and block the ip from OIS level 7 through to 3 and it seems ot have worked i am now gettting zeros ads. i looked at he cookies and they dnt appear to suggest phorm but then again i dnt know what a phorm cookie will involve. The ads that i was getting after fresh install was mostly what i was surfing i even got one about here.
