That explains it! Thanks Karm! The proxy server trick works perfectly. I filter out just Clocks images and no one elses. It makes me a little nervous that images are actually allowed in posts. I mean it would be trivial to include an image in your message that resides on a server you control and track the IP addresses of the people reading these forums. And it wouldn't be too difficult to match up the time/IPaddr in the server logs with the time on a message posted in a forum and figure out the exact IP address of the each individual user who posts on this site.
Or am I just being paranoid?

That's pretty much how "web bugs" - tiny little gif's no more than 1 X 1 or 2 X 2 pixels in size work (but you knew that already ;) ) My cache picks up quite a few of those fuckers every time I go on-line. WTF do I care? Since I use dial-up, my IP address is constantly changing anyway. Besides, I don't think I'll be getting a whole helluva lot of Macro$uck spam for visiting this site :D
