One thing you can do but it carries some danger
Search your hard drive for a file called HOSTS
Now I just searched and found HOSTS.TXT but as I recall the file name is just hosts, NO extnsion.
Part of the file may look like this...
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# 127.0.0.1 pub.sponsorselect.com
127.0.0.1 fastdailyfind.com
127.0.0.1 paid.outbrain.com
127.0.0.1 nym1.ib.adnxs.com
Any attempt to acces,, for example... paid.outbrain.com/anything at all
Will return a 404,page not found error.
The danger...Sometimes some webpages just flat out INSIST you view the stupid ad.double.ick
