Who uses an add-on that regularly updates your adblock list? I use this one called Filterset.G, but I'm not sure if it still updates any more. I'm hoping someone will recommend a better one (although this one kicks ass already).

Personally, I love ads. I really really love ads. Without ads, many awesome websites would not exist -- as there is no point for producers of the website to earn some cash, a reward for their efforts. Whenever there's a site blossoming, I always click the ads and have a good feeling that I'm rewarding the owner for their work. :)

You have a good point - it is noble, but I prefer to free-ride (proving the economist right about incentives :P).

If they are decent relevant ads, they aren't so bad. for example i think ads related to the VCE would be a better idea as they are actually something you might want to click and they provide useful information about relevant services provided....but random stuff such as Travel Insurance USA is kinda annoying :)
