There are other options.....
I use ZoneAlarmPro, and it has an ad-blocking feature. Not only can it disable pop-up (and under) ads, it can eliminate banner ads from 3rd party servers.
I've never used ad-aware, so I can't comment on it's effectiveness, but I can say that ZApro does the job extremely well.

It doesn't let them in through the firewall in the first place....
If you have something like Gator, that came with some other software (like Audiogalaxy), then you allow the software to access the net, but prevent the ad-proggie from doing so.
Everything that goes in and out through your modem must get explicit permission from you before it can go. (Or have you set that permission)
