Actually its a bit lame.
If the page you are viewing references a site you want nulled out, and
advert you don't wish to see, then its going to try
"http://127.9.9.1/whatever" and since you don't have server there
dishing out a null page you browser is gong to wait ... and wait ...
and wait .. and time out.
A good way to kill your browser's performance.
What you want is something that listens on port 80, perhaps using the
XINET daemon and then invokes a shell script that merely uses 'echo' to
respond

Big deal, eh?
