Default ads on left of screen

Hey i turned my comp on the other day, opened google and was confronted with oversized large ads on the left of screen. I then went on ebay and found the same thing :-( I know these sites have to advertise but this is ridiculous. Is there anyway to move these ads, ive tried playing around with settings etc but with no luck.
Also i noticed when typed a password, firefox asks if it wants to remember it and it came up in that space where the ads are instead of at the top of the screen. Your help is appreciated.

I use WebMail Adblocker to get of the GMail text add in Firefox 3.x, it gets rid of them all...
