Default Block Images in Play Store App

Hey guys!

Is there any way to block app preview images from loading in the Play Store app? Obviously this will have to be done using root. I was thinking possibly at the host file, but I'm not sure what domains I could block without losing ALL play store functionality. I have a rooted Motorola Triumph running CM7.

Also, is there anyway I can see (sniff) a list of all the traffic (maybe down to the packet level) going to and from the play store app? If so, maybe I'd be able to find a specific ip I can filter.

The only other way I could think of would be to modify the play store apk to remove image previews... Anyone got ideas on how to do that?

Lets assume hypothetically I need to block these images to minimize bandwidth usage.

I really appreciate the help, you guys rock!!
