More information about the Curves SWF
Well, I said I would get in touch with Doubleclick - their response was interesting - I quote:
"it's to confuse people... look you get the same results:
openadstream.net/ad0.php?url=http://www.google.com/click/nxtgcbb80290000125ave/direct/wi/ai&key=V24567233828272323&c=127500043
openadstream.net/ad0.php?url=http://www.microsoft.com/click/nxtgcbb80290000125ave/direct/wi/ai&key=V24567233828272323&c=127500043"
The original URL I provided was:
openadstream.net/ad0.php?url=http://ad.doubleclick.net/click/nxtgcbb80290000125ave/direct/wi/ai&key=V24567233828272323&c=127500043
Each of those URL renders the same result - a plain white white page with the text "stats=917174773"
Oh, and guess who supplies the name servers for openadstream.net - yep, you guessed it - estboxes.com aka estdomains - a domain that has already been mentioned once in my blog today.
