So this free counter:

  Doesn't record hits from people with images turned off
  DOES record hits from other pages that inadvertantly
    copy your link too literally
  Forces a cheesy, non-targeted banner ad on each of
    your pages
  Tells you nothing about where hits are coming from

Exactly how much does your ISP charge you to sneak a peek at the server
logs?
