Another problem with those banners on the web is that more and more people are adding banner blocking to their browsing. Shareware products are available (junkbusters), and you can get products for a reasonable cost that do even more, such as blocking cookies and references, preventing the revealing of your email address, acting as a personal firewall, and much more. As an example, $30 buys atguard (http://www.atguard.com). If these proliferate, double click won't be able to collect data due to blocked cookies, and less and less people will click on banners. Carl
