Firefox has this infuriating behavior I hate which IE does too except that with IE it is more infuriating: Even after the main portions of the webpage are displayed, the browser acts locked and unresponsive while images and whatnot are slow to display in the advertisement pane(s). I've already read the page and I'm eager to move on to a link or the next page but the browser is frozen waiting for a JPG in the advertisement pane to finally come up!

Is there an option for Firefox to timeout or blow-off the advertisement pane when those elements are (annoyingly) slow? How about a "advertizement incorrect" (LOL) option of Firefox that ignores advertisement? Just remove those advertisement panes completely?

Let me know what I can do and where in Firefox to do it.

If you do not have either or both of the following Add-ons, try installing them to stop those annoyances. I use both.
