When I delete the ads, I also delete the log. And since I delete all the ads 
on the very day they were downloaded (without ever reading them), I can 
neither confirm nor deny your statement.
The easiest way to minimize the downloading volume, I found, was to change 
your demographic info to show the lowest annual salary, and then select only 
one "special Interest".

PS: Why not forward your note to "All" in the Juno echo, to see if anyone 
else has encountered the same thing as you.
