[Greasemonkey] IMDB problem involving link to servedby.adverstising.com

[Scott Arnold]

I've had problems with the IMDB lately (http://www.imdb.com).  Problem 
is they use JavaScript to build certain parts of the page.  The 
offending method is called writeBanner, which attempts to access content 
from servedby.advertising.com.  However, this function has been hanging 
alot lately (probably due to problems with the servedby.advertising.com 
site).  This is a big problem because the page remains blank until after 
this method is executed.

I thought GreaseMonkey would be the perfect solution for this.  However, 
GreaseMonkey does not intervene until after the DOM is loaded, and the 
DOM isn't fully loaded until after the writeBanner method executes.  Is 
there any solution to this?  Might there be another plug-in similar to 
GreaseMonkey that can modify the HTML before it is parsed?

Thanks for any suggestions you might have.
