two things come to mind here, Firefox and Adblock

I use adblock to block all ads like that on ALL sites, even wrongplanet

I suggest you get Firefox and Adblock so you don't have to even look at those ads again

I'm honestly a bit surprised that this hasn't been removed. It does work, but I think I remember Alex asking that people not do that, to make sure the site gets ad revenue.

The content of the ads are an issue. Unfortunately I'm not sure if Alex has all that much control over what gets advertised.
