Umm I don't seem to have it even here. I've just started using the full version of Kerio Firewall, which will remove it from the pages if you configure it strictly enough.

How to remove IntelliTXT ads:
You can see an example of them here, they only work in MSIE, so it would seem. They're the green links that are double-underlined. http://www.off-road.com/jeep/questions/2004_03/ind ex.html
Go to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc and edit the file named HOSTS, add the following to it:
0.0.0.0 itxt.vibrantmedia.com
Now close and reload MSIE for the change to take effect, visit the site again, and behold: No more IntelliTXT ads. I would assume this works at any site that uses them.

127.0.0.1 itxt.vibrantmedia.com
