> endless spamming of banner ads that monopolize my browsing history...
Huh?
The banner ads that they insert on Facebook, etc. can't redirect your browser sessions automatically. The links shouldn't be in your browser history unless you click on them.
As for blocking stuff like that, as a Firefox user with AdBlock and NoScript installed, I've got none of that BS to deal with.
To block links to that site entirely, you might edit your /private/etc/hosts file, adding these lines at the bottom:
cubics.com 127.0.0.1
bidsystem.com 127.0.0.1
204.137.28.31 127.0.0.1
Note that you need admin privileges to edit that file.
