Go to
http://www.everythingisnt.com/hosts.html and install the hosts file (or use their handy installer.) The file blocks the majority of annoying ad hosts. A few websites don't work perfectly afterward - tvtome.com is alas one of them (it won't display the page until the ad is pulled. *sigh*)
And bookmarking this so I don't have to hunt down this very useful website again.
