Wow, I really feel sorry for you and everybody else who does their browsing without ad blocking software.
I recommended Resizr after looking at it in FireFox with the Adblock Plus (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865) and Adblock Plus Element Hiding Helper (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4364) add-ons. I have no idea what it looks like without ad filters, and frankly I do not wish to find out.
I started using ad blocking software after noticing that Flash based embedded ads on web pages consume CPU cycles even when the browser window is minimized or is not in the foreground (hidden behind other windows). And since I usually have 20 or more web pages open simultaneously, that adds up pretty quickly and you are left with very little processing power left for your other meaningful tasks. Also, I'm not sure whether your PC consumes more electricity when running at 80% CPU capacity because of all the Flash ads versus when running at 3-5% CPU capacity with ad blocking software. That sounds like a fun project to measure that difference in energy efficiency.

I have used that media convert website so many times....it is so helpful when you have files that somebody gives you for something and you can't open them because you don't have the same software as them. Because not only does the website have media files, but they also have things like documents and stuff... It truely is a one-stop place for all your conversion needs.

I highly recommend it to anybody who ever wants to convert a file for some reason or another.
