I'm seeing images from 
http://a1444.g.akamai.net/[...]/www.burstnet.com/gifs/[...]
inside links like:
http://www.burstnet.com/ads/ad1954a-map.cgi[...]

I don't know if burstnet has legit content, nor whether it's best to target the <a> or the <img>.
There's a particularly annoying Flash ad that appears at the top of the page here:

http://www.angelfire.com/ultra/dandb/HOW_TO_BRAKEPEDAL.htm

It's coming in through Javascript, seemingly from here:

http://ly.lygo.com/ly/video/ad/banner.html?site=ANGELFIRE

cl
afimages.apple.com is providing a bunch of ads on Mac Daily News (which is a horrid Fox-esque site that I loathe) that we should probably be blocking.

Sample URL:

Basically, block Adbrite, please. :)
I realise it's a Swedish site, but there are ads galore over here:

http://www.thelocal.se/5714/20061206/
Gmail's right-hand ads are back.

div#rhc > div.rh

should be the new rule, but my trunk testing build won't load gmail atm....
There's a Customs and Border Patrol Flash ad showing up on ESPN all of a sudden, generated by

<script language="Javascript1.1" type="text/javascript" src="http://espn.go.com/Adserver?CallDown&amp;js=1&amp;AdTypes=Banner;"></script>

cl decided that the ad was really

http://hrtrak.net/.i?t=431&j=f?2007.01.14.13.40.55

(which seems to be an ad-server host we can bit-bucket for everything).
And another one that got through on treemo.com (from TribalFusion):

Do you hate me yet? ;)
Yes ;)

Looks like we block every other sort of tribalfusion thing except plain ol' img[src*="tribalfusion.com"]
Hm... That'd basically kill any legitimate images on tribalfusion.com, no? We already break a lot of it... if we're okay with completely killing any legitimate access to tribalfusion.com (like, say, seeing what services they offer), then this change is fine with me.
We could come up with some complicated rule to exclude images on www.tribalfusion.com, but frankly, if a Camino user is interested in those services, he/she can just turn off ad-blocking while browsing that site.  For the vast majority of Camino users, though, there are no "legitimate images on tribalfusion.com" ;)
Yeah, that'd be fine.

On a side note, I just got some Google ads on MySpace:

		str += '    <DIV id=ad-wrap>  <DIV id=ad-hdr>Sponsored Links</DIV>';

Whoops, I had ad blocking off (was testing something else). When I turned it back on I no longer saw the ads from speed.pointroll.com --then again, those could've been dynamic and might've appeared with ad blocking on. I'll keep my eyes out for other ads from that server.

On the other hand, the ad from twx.2mdn.net still persisted even with ad blocking on.
That twx.2mdn.net ad can probably be killed by just killing the entire domain. Going to it in a browser yields "This is a DoubleClick advertising server."

And going to just 2mdn.net yields an error. Let's just kill the entire domain.

We already are :(  http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/search?string=2mdn&find=&filter=mozilla%2Fcamino

This ad sneaks through, in my best guess, because it's being served as application/octet-stream instead of as Flash?

Washington Post (any article):

div#textlinks>div[class*="sponsorship"],
div#topjobs>div[class*="sponsorship"],
div[id*="ad_links_bottom"]

Imageshack (e.g. http://img180.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture1cm2.png ):

iframe[id*="tp_frame1"],
iframe[src*="imageshack.us/doneCode.php"]
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
> div[id*="ad_links_bottom"]

How about just |div[id*="ad_links"]|? It's more general, but unlikely to have false positives.
Attached patch Omnibus Ad-Blocking Update (obsolete) — — Splinter Review 
Here's the patch, which fixes everything here except the two odd flash ads already and also fixes the two dep bugs.  

Most of the rules are self-explanatory or have been mentioned, but see bug 369088 for the rationale behind the doubleclick embed change.  Also, the linksynergy/apple whitelist rule was changed to block Apple ads on cl's Mac Daily News article (but preserves the little iTunes buttons we added the whitelist rule for in the first place).

Someone please remind me never again to miss turning in a patch at the end of a month; it becomes very time-consuming to axe two months worth of ads ;)

February is bug 369174.

I have on objection : the inclusion of div#rhc>div.rh is quite generic.
Example: it was used for legitimate content until recently by elpais.es (one of the most important newspaper sites in Spain) before they redirected to elpais.com, and used a different stylesheet.

(I also use it for my own browser bugs internal site, but I can change that...;-)
This does smorgan's comment 21, which somehow I didn't see until well after attaching the patch (yay no conflict screens for patches :p) as well as addresses philippe's concern by throwing that rule in a Gmail @-moz-document block.
