Why is http://images.apple.com/dotmac/images/index_btn_joinnow.gif blocked by the adblock filter that blocks www.mac.com/, but http://images.apple.com/dotmac/images/index_title_home2.gif isn't?!?

I'm not seeing www.mac.com in the string images.apple.com/dotmac/images/btn_joinnow.gif anywhere ...

The filter "www.mac.com/" does even worse:

http://images.apple.com/t/2007/us/en/i/3.gif loads
http://images.apple.com/t/2007/us/en/i/4.gif is adblocked
http://images.apple.com/t/2007/us/en/i/5.gif all the way to http://images.apple.com/t/2007/us/en/i/8.gif also load. So does 1 and 2.

What about that "4" triggers "www.mac.com/*" exactly?

Adblock v.5 d3 nightly 42 running under SeaMonkey 1.0.5 and Windows XPSP2 (has IE7 as non-default browser) - not the most recent of everything, but no reason to believe updating would fix this either at the moment.
