To block the flash ads, press Ctrl+Shift+F. >>;

Then click on where it says "flash overlay" ( or something like that) where the ad was, then adblock it. xD

I remember way back when Bonzi Buddy was a parrot. Back then it was annoying but harmless. It told jokes and siggested websites to visit. Mainly the commercial version you had to pay for.

When it became the purple gorilla, it really became a moneky on your back, watching over your shoulder and stealing things. That was when Bonzi Buddy got sent back to the jungle off my system, and barred from ever coming back. This was about 5 years ago, before Spyware became an industry. Also banished were all the other "companions" that you could get at the time.

Sounds like you need to use more wildcards. Instead of blocking "scammeradcompany.com/124356785.jpg" or whatever, block "scammeradcompany*"
