I feel like I've asked this before, but I need a refresher.

Is there any way to have a page keep loading while the ad server is thinking about the stuff it likes to think about?

I imagine it's set up that way on purpose. I find nothing else ever seems to hang a page when it's not conecting.

Well, I can imagine a few reasons for that, but I guess then the key question is can it be made to stop?

I've never understood why you can't selectively stop parts of a page from downloading in the Activity window.

I was imagining a fix at the point in the chain where it's been decided this is a good idea.
