IVW (BOX) are installed on most German sides for the reaches of advertising around the user to identify. (cookie, 1x1 pixel, ..)

I'm sorry - thanks for that information, but I don't have my decoder ring.

Are you saying a filter of:
*ivw*

will stop those ads?

I have one filter that shows effective on that page, and the only thing I see are the flash ads (crawling banner top center, scrolling text in top right blue box). I added your filter and it didn't do anything for those 2 flash ads (which is expected) - so I'll stick with mine that's working anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion though; my filter that shows "effective" on that page is (broken up so as not to widen forum page; should be one line if entered in adblock):

/[\W]ad(bureau|bot|client|council|frame|gif|graph|image|info|log|rotator|server|banners?|click|flow|frame|ima?g(es?)?|log|serv(er|e)?|stream|type|
view|vert(ising|isements?)?|js|trix|v|xchange)[\W\d]/

the IVW box is a hardware.

many questionnaires, advertising, ... are coupled with the ivw.
The movements of the users are recorded, evaluated and profiles created with that.
no chance to escape - only to minimise the information.

- ivw script
- ivw cookie
- 1x1 pixel (loading from external server)

with adblock u can block the script (maybe *ivw* - sure there are better contelations)

every bigger german site incl. advertising has a ivw box

it helps at least a little bit. blocking cookies is also easy... so they can get only basic things.
