Well, you still have to manually flipp the buttons, but at least now it
only takes a few mouse clicks...

It means that if a single web page loads adverts from 25 different
domains, I have to manually block all 25 domains, one at a time.
(Assuming I can somehow figure out where the images are being loaded
from. The HTML source is like spaghetti and half of it is JS-generated.)

Use adblock in that case. You can right-click on the image and select
to block images from that site from the context menu.

There is a FlashBlock addon available. I have it. It's one of those "can't live
without" things, side by side with the addblock addon.
Go on the Mozilla web site, navigate to the addons section and search for
flashblock.
You can configure it to disable all flash but those you want. It use a white
list. The place where a flash is suposed to appears is still there, but with a
"F" button allowing you to start THAT flash, this time.

Here's what I have.
General ad image blocking, I use adblock as Warp pointed out. At the
bottom of my message you'll find the regexps I use - works well enough.
If you want to be really thorough, get Adblock Plus, which I believe
allows you to automatically download good filtersets.
Flashblock has been mentioned, but I've never used it. Instead, I use
NoScript. It prevents scripts of any kind from loading (Java,
Javascript, Flash, etc). It's quite customizable, and you could probably
use it for just one page. I find it convenient to have it on all the
time and simply whitelist certain pages.
Like FlashBlock, Noscript will show a clickable area wherever there's
Java/Flash content. You merely have to click it and press OK to get just
that aspect of the site working.
(Then there's CookieSafe for your cookie concerns...).

IMO there's the danger in such generic filtering that it will sometimes
filter something which is *not* an ad, and might be relevant to the contents
of the website.
I prefer using adblock on a site-by-site basis. In other words, whenever
there's an obnoxious ad that bothers my concentration, I block images from
that url+path.

Have to say I'm surprised that anybody here is using Firefox and isn't
using FlashBlock and AdBlock; you might want to add Duplicate Tab, Web
Developer and Session Manger too.

I've never heard of any of these things. I just use Firefox to, you
know, browse the Internet...

I've mentioned Adblock and NoScript a bunch of times on these groups.
