Re: blocking doubleclick

Hi Hugh,

The other solution is to use the internal ad blocker to block the scripts  
download location, you can find them embedded into the page source. I do  
the same with Google`s analytics script.
Also at least upgrade to 9.64, it corrected a few security related bugs,  
if you for some reason unable to upgrade to 10.10
