OmniWeb 5.1.3 and 5.5sp3 displayed blocked ads as holes in a page layout -- a waste of space but not very distracting.

In place of a blocked ad, SP4 is displaying error text like this:

Cannot Load Address

Stopped loading <filtered:http://ad.doubleclick.net/adi/sitename/homepage;tile=1;dcopt=ist;sz=728x90;ord='+%20ord%2 0+'?>: Cannot show URL

I much prefer the empty ad holes.

Ick! Give me empty space. I see the annoying error message at:

This isn't the intended behavior, i've filed an entry in our bug database on this.
