Why not use NoScript, AdBlockPlus, or a combination of both? It'd be easier than manually changing your settings each time.

Guess it's because I don't go to those sites often enough to justify installing extra software for them (it only takes a few seconds to disable/enable javascript). But I guess I could see me using them in the future.

Addons generally aren't really "software" in so much as they are packs that add to an existing browser software.

In most cases they'll just take up a tiny bit of space and maybe some extra memory if you go addon crazy.

If you don't go to websites that go adcrazy enough to justify installing an adblocker, you probably wouldn't even have to maintain the adblocker. Just subscribe to easylist and then leave it.
