A good hosts blocker will save you from downloading lots of Ad Jpegs..

The Hosts File Project http://hostsfile.mine.nu

Now any ad servers will get re-driected to 127.0.0.1

You also need to run a webserver so that any ads get displayed with a jpeg of your choice. Otherwise, the browser will wait and then timeout which will take longer than no hosts file at all. I use one called eDexter since it's so small.

Browse with images off with Opera. If you need them u can get them individually.

Btw IE is pretty fast when you are only looking at one page, but if you need more thats when tabbed browsers can be useful. Use Maxthon if you absolutely have to stick with IE.
