If that's the case, your choice of browser will be irrelevant.

Also, if you think blocking popups/ads will help, comcast have, I believe, been doing a lot of work in html rewriting, so they may just be able to embed the ad in your page regardless (as comcast did).
BUT surely if you have cookies turned off in your browser, then they cant track, or have i got it wrong (again)?
