As an ad-blocking strategy, and for reasons of privacy, I intentionally route a lot of domains to localhost.

Unfortunately, when using K-Meleon, this means that I get a lot of "The connection was refused when connecting to ad.doubleclick.net" messages, that I then have to click on to make them go away. This gets very old very quickly.

Please include in a future release a Preferences option that disables this message, at least for domains routed to localhost. That shouldn't be hard to identify.

Thanks.

If sheer bulk of comments influences you guys...
I second the above. I do the same thing (have offensive ads resolve to 127.0.0.1), and it does get a tad annoying to have to dismiss a dialog every time one of those ads tries to load.

We appreciate the input. But, I think this is a Mozillar-related bug so we may be limited in what we can do. I'll check to see if there is a bug report on this at Mozilla.
