What about all the lynx users or the visually impaired that have screen readers or PDA users? They aren't intentionally blocking the ads, this suggestion would alienate complete sections of the online community. Ad blockers generally work on image sizes or URL keywords - just vary those slightly or just provide a textual alternative (most ads I've seen do that)
