The second solution in the above link (registry hack) seemed to do the trick for me. I get pretty pictures, but no ads (as far as I can tell right now anyway)!

Thanks! That was going to be my next try. You'd think that if you can do that, they'd allow the installer to do a forced one.

It appears to be just as bad for the Bing translator, but not in the way you'd think.
