Yes, well that pretty well is it then (I was rushing out and did
not look at OP's code). It is easy for OP to test if he is not
convinced already: duplicate the image and rename to something
neutral, duplicate the html file it sits in and rename, put them
in the same folders and tell the people complaining to now view
the renamed page. I suggest this procedure in case it is a live
site - this disturbs it not at all. Also, in case the ad blocker
is very smart, and is looking at the link (it was a link too,
no?) this is easy to discover by sending it (on the test page) to
something as simple as a page with nothing much on it and named
innocuously.
