What happens if you go to an https: site? The data generally cannot be modified between the server and your browser in that case.

Also... your in-browser proxy choice works around the ISP proxy? Interesting.

Sorry I forgot to add that.On more trial and error - I see

1> on https no ad is displayed

2> Even on ftp sites no ad is displayed.

Only happens with pages on http://.

Another interesting thing, after installing adblock-plus, an x mark is displayed on http pages just where the ad used to be.After right-cliking, i see an url 172.16.2.194/streamride/* in adblock plus filter blocking dialog.Interestingly my ISP is also running squid 3.2.0.4 on streamride host which is evident by trying to connect to random ip addresses and seeing the error page.
