This is a compilation of some of the other Facebook styles on this site that I found useful, along with some additional advertisement removal CSS of my own.
This style also includes a section to remove the "New Stuff" and "Next Step" sections.
Update history:
2007-09-10 : .findfriends style is no longer hidden, since it was used in other places on the site.
2007-11-09 : updated to hide the .social_ad style
2008-07-24 : updated for advertisement styles used in the new July 2008 Facebook re-design.
I also added rules to hide the application story entries and "application installed by friend" stories in the news feed, but since some people may be interested in these, the .app_story and .app_install_story styles are currently commented out. (On a personal note, I have had third party applications disabled on my profile for months now, so I'm not even sure if they still have these showing up.)
2008-12-22 : Removed the new "sponsor" ad box on the Facebook home page and fixed a formatting issue on the profile page.
2009-03-15: Added .UIHotStory_Ad line. (So how many redesigns has Facebook been through so far?)
If I missed anything, let me know and I'll update the CSS here. I did some testing but didn't go to every type of page on Facebook to see if I got everything.

Unfortunately doesn't remove left sidebar ads for me. Other styles seem to work fine, so I'd recommend others instead of this.

Simple, excellent script! Does what it is supposed to do, and no more.
Where else is .findfriends used on the site (as I've added it back to the rules...)?
What about removing .invitefriends too?
