There are some content filtering packages, eg Super Scout, that will block
ads very well.  But the cost is large ~$10K.  The other way is to create a
destination set with common ad servers and block the destination set.  If
you have a look at a usage report showing top 20 sites, at least 5 are
likely to be ad servers.  Add them to the destination set.  Slowly build the
destination set over time.

For a starting list of servers for the destination set see
