    I don't find In Private Filtering to be effective.

    IE does not use any other tool to block popups, It has its own function.

    . That function can be turned off and it is a popup blocker rather than an ad blocker. I use the popup blocker in Google toolbar, but I agree with Evan that the best you can hope to do is use a Hosts file.
