You want this:
http://www.accs-net.com/hosts/eDexter.html
eDexter is a program that acts as a local-only (it is not accessible throught the Internet)
HTTP server on your computer. It is used to replace the empty boxes that occur when you
use the Hosts file to block ads. eDexter will put one of its own images into the box that
would have been occupied by the advertisement. This way, you will not have large, empty
boxes in your browser and will instead have an image where the box used to be.
The site you have blocked in your Hosts file will still not be contacted at all, and so your web
browsing can not be monitored by that site in any way as they won't even know your IP
address because the Hosts file has blocked it. The replacement images will load
completely off your hard drive and not from an external site, so eDexter is completely
self-contained on your computer.
eDexter can use either its own internal 43 byte image, which is very fast, or it can use the
included images. To use the internal image, make sure the check mark is gone from the
"use images" setting in eDexter. To use the included images or your own images, check
the option for "use images."
