Our website has ads too, but I fully support everyone who wants to block them. They add no value to the website and I'm only interested in people using our site, not in getting them distracted or annoyed. We even have an ad-free version of our main website (but it's not indexed by search engines).
I've also learned that people working at ad agencies as well as those handling ads on the publisher side tend to be extremely incompetent w.r.t. web publishing. They do not understand how usability, reputation, visitor/customer satisfaction work. They tend to believe that looking at ads is the most important thing people visit websites for (and possibly that people make road trips just in order to look at the billboards).
