Firefox, noscript and ad-block plus are your best friends in this case. :D

The adds only are annoying if they play sound on their own. And when they run while i'm running an REALLY heavy Java application or anything. I mean, flash advertisements lagg like, even more then Java for me.

Thankfully, with most you can alter their settings, zoom them in on a spot that doesnt do anything at all, or if thats *gasp* actually allowed, plain stop them with an option!
Meh, too lazy to install an add blocker of sorts myself. I do things manually. :P

What? That doesn't really make much sense.

I mean, i'm too lazy and cant be bothered to install one myself. If an advertisement annoys me, i completely mess it up untill it uses almost no resources. Hell, if they switch from advertisement to another, you could also in the meanwhile the ad loads, press that stop button IE has, effectively making the ad unable to load, unfortunately anything else that was loading (except Java) will also stop.
