The simplest method for effective ad blocking I've found is to install an ad blocking css style sheet into OW's Preferences -> Page Appearance Preferences. You can find a good css ad blocker inside the Camino browser's Show Package Contents -> Contents -> Resources file. Just pull it out and store it someplace handy on your HD, then access it with the Style Sheet option on Page Appearance Preferences. If you want to allow ads on a page just change the blocking option for that page to None. I've also found a ready to install fanboy's list css somewhere online but I can't recall where. I've been using this for years and it works perfectly. Be sure to uncheck all the ad block options in OW's built in ad blocker to prevent them from blocking embedded videos.
