If you dislike a long text someone has in his sig, and you do not want to disable all signatures, have a look at the software called Privoxy.

You can also use UserContent.css mechanism on all browsers that are based on mozilla engine to do very interesting things, including scrubbing out images, advertisment, formatting or other unwanted elements.

The thing about using ESC is that you have to do each time the page is re-freshed, and threads tend often to be multi-page. Looks like adblock in Firefox is the best solution for me. Not that it's a huge problem, I can think of maybe three or four avatars I might like to "switch off".
