Block ads that are images by setting your browser not to show any images. You may not want to do this if you want to see images that are not ads. To do it, if you have Internet Explorer, go to the Advanced section under the Internet Options in the Tools menu. There is an option that says "Show Pictures" in the Multimedia section. Click on the button next to it to make this option not selected, if it already is selected. There is a similar option in Firefox, and it is customizable. Open the Options section under the Tools menu, and select the Content tab. You can uncheck the "Load images automatically" to see no images, or you can add specific websites where you don't want to see images. To do that, click on the "Exceptions" button next to the "Load images automatically" option.

2
Set your browser to block pop-up ads. Find this in Internet Explorer under the Tools menu, and in Firefox by selecting "Tools," then "Options" and then looking for the option under the Content tab. Both browsers let you turn on a pop-up blocker and then specify websites that are exceptions where you will allow pop-ups.

3
Install Google Toolbar to block pop-up ads. Google Toolbar is an added set of buttons that can be installed in your browser. Download and install it, and select the option to turn on the pop-up blocker to give you added protection against pop-up ads. You may have to turn this option off occasionally when installing software.

4
Install the Adblock Plus add-on for Firefox. Download it from the add-ons section at the Firefox website. This will block most banner and pop-up ads.
