User-Agent: Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; ru-RU; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031006 The Mozilla banner (see http://www.mozilla.org/images/mozilla-banner.gif), which appears on all Bugzilla pages, is sometimes (depending on the system) removed by ad-blocking software. The file name includes "banner" and so does not pass some anti-ad filters. Perhaps it would be possible to use another filename for the mozilla banner? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install some anti-ad software, add ".*banner.*" to filters (if it still is not there). 2. Open bugzilla.mozilla.org. Actual Results: Enjoy the black square on the top of page instead of Mozilla banner. Expected Results: Mozilla's banner should appear! "Banner" seems to be the string too often contained in the URLs of ad-images.
This is a valid request. -> NEW I also think that the idea is good to change the file name.

Ever confirmed: true
worksforme w/ Norton Internet Security's ad blocking feature it seems a bit silly not to use "banner", which is common in filenames.
It does not pass at least my filters. I use the old good AtGuard 3.22.
I very much doubt anyone's going to get around to fixing this, as it would require CVS moves in the website, and updating all the pages which use it (or writing a rewrite rule.) Gerv
