I'm not sure if I understand you're problem, but this is what I do. Go to C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc and open the hosts file, if promtpted, open it in Notepad.
Add a line like this at the bottom:
127.0.0.2 googleads.g.doubleclick.net
After that, you should see a little red x where you used to see an ad. You're basically telling your computer a bogus address for that item, so it won't be able to find it, which means you don't have to look at it.
I have a couple dozen that I've added to my hosts file. If you see an ad you don't like, right-click and go to properties and look for the website address of the item. This works great for traditional ad images, flash ads aren't so easy.
Here are some suggestions:
127.0.0.2 ad.doubleclick.net
127.0.0.2 plusone.google.com
127.0.0.2 ad.hotmail.com
127.0.0.2 a.rad.msn.com
