Ad/Pop-up Blocking

I've noticed some racy ads I haven't seen before since I lost Norton, particularly on Facebook.

Even though my IE 7 blocks most pop-ups, they manage to appear on some sites. It take it that there will always be developers who find a way around the latest ad/pop-up blocking features.

I downloaded PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Anti-virus (trial version), and I also have Haute Secure. I'm thinking of purchasing registration for the Spyware Doctor to get the benefits of the cleanup features, etc. It's reasonably priced and you can use the same subscription for up to 3 computers.

Is there any good ad/pop-up blocking software out there that is as good, or better than Norton?

TIA
