In my opinion it wouldn't be worth the effort to try to strip off 
these ads. They're easy to ignore once you know what they are. 
There's also the possibility that software to strip off ads will make 
mistakes and remove legitimate content. I think it's better to leave 
things alone than to invest a lot of effort in an imperfect solution 
to a minor problem.
