Try Firefox with the Taco 3.0 add-on. Both are free. Not only will you block annoying ads, but the Firefox browser with Taco 3.0 will prevent websites (ad servers) from tracking you about the web.

Bad planning on your part does not constitute and automatic emergency on our part. Ad Block in FF allows YOU to choose what you want to see. You DO, however, have to set it up and configure it. I live on FNC and I have never seen the ad you describe. Have 9 tabs open from FNC to Drudge to J Post. Never see anything I dont want to see.

I generally don’t notice stuff like this. I run firefox with adblock plus and flashblock. Add zoom toolbar, tab mix plus, and ie view, and you’ve got an industrial browser that’s mostly annoyance free (except if you run it too many days without restarting it, it’s memory leaks will eventually eat your whole RAM.)
