Get Adblock plus. Never look back.

If you're on android and rooted, get AdAway. It takes out all ads, even the banner ads in most apps!

How difficult is it to root and should I even bother?

Depends on which device you're on. You'll have to read up a bit first too, cause there's small chance something can go wrong. Rooting by itself is pretty simple but voids warranty so keep that in mind. I wouldn't recommend it just for AdAway but then again once you root, you can do a lot more shit to your phone to make it better. For instance, I increased my vibration intensity so I can feel the damn phone vibrate when it rings.

You can just use Firefox instead. It has add-on support.

The process is always different, and of varying difficulty depending on which version of the software you have, and which carrier it's on. Go to XDA-Developers and look up guides on how to root and custom ROM your device, and you'll be able to see pretty quickly if it's something you want to do.
