I already have Mozilla installed. Is there a way to turn the "ad block" feature off?

Since when did mozilla come with adblock? Or did you install it as an extension? Adblock works so well for me I hardly even noticed.

I have not found any delay in page rendering due to Adblock. While I cannot offer any empirical evidence, my observation is that Adblock actually speeds up page rendering (in addition to making browsing more pleasant).
@dOomed
Adblock is an extension; it is not installed with Firefox. If you have installed the Adblock extension, it can be disabled by going to Tools --> Adblock --> Preferences --> Remove check in front of Enable Adblock.

I have learned that larger lists of content to block cause the slower page loading.
Just make sure you dont have a list of atleast 400 items like mine has.

I have found that this short list is a very good starting place to block just about all ads using Adblock (sorry, I don't remember where I got it from). Just copy and save the following as a text file and use the Import Filters function under Adblock Options:
/\D\d{2,3}x\d{2,3}\D/
googlesyndication
us.yimg.com/a/
/\/buy_assets\//
/[\W\d_](top|bottom|left|right|)?banner(s|id=|\d|_)[\W\d]/
/[\W\d](double|fast)click[\W\d]/
/[\W\d]click(stream|thrutraffic|thru|xchange)[\W\d]/
/[\W\d]value(stream|xchange|click)[\W\d]/
/[\W\d]dime(xchange|click)[\W\d]/
/[\W\d](onlineads?|ad(banner|click|-?flow|frame|ima?g(es?)?|_id|js|log|serv(er|e)?|stream|_string|s|trix|type|vertisements?|v|vert|xchange)?)[\W\d]/
