I use a different approach:

I have an add-on called Stylish installed. Stylish is essentially "Greasemonkey for CSS". Greasemonkey lets you run arbitrary JavaScript on specified pages. Stylish does the same for CSS, with the added feature that changes are visible immediately.

I have Stylish configured to apply the Ad-Blocking Filterset P "UserStyle" globally. It's a lengthy block of CSS that defines various things as ads and simply doesn't render them.

Ad-Block Plus is more powerful, but I don't care for the overhead of an add-on actively scanning each page to look for adds. Stylish and Filterset P does a sufficiently good job for me.

Stylish is here.

Ad Blocking Filterset P is here.
