As you told me, I now removed all of the 0.0.0.0 entries from the hosts file and then rebooted the phone. This did not cause any change to the strange effect. But to tell the whole story, before I applied the changes to the phone I already had blocked these sites by means of the child protetection blacklist within my router. So my conclusion still is, that something (not necessarily QNetMan2) really is trying (in vain) to establish a connection with doubleclick.net. What do you think?
