Am I the only one that absolutely does NOT want this? I don't care so much about viruses in images, rather I don't want spammers to see that I loaded a custom image and thus my email address is valid.

(A wonderful side-product of rarely loading images is that most newsletter-type emails are vastly easier to read.)
