As an alternative, I would highly recommend using Squid as a
domain-filter web proxy, and simply ban the BurstMedia domain
(burstnet.com). I've got quite an extensive domain filter list compiled
over several years, if anyone wants it. 

To activate the external filter list in Squid, simply add this to your
ACL section:

###
acl ad_servers dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/squid/banlist.txt"
http_access deny ad_servers
###

I *very* seldom see third-party ads, and even less often have problems
with the list being too strict. The FP works fine for me in Galeon,
Phoenix, Firebird, Epiphany, and Mozilla. 

Hope this helps someone.
