I don't think either WinXP or Linux (the operating systems) do anything to
block ads. It's probably either your email program (there are different
ones on both platforms) or your browser (there also are different ones on
both platforms) or maybe your hosts configuration (which actually is a
system thing, but it's the same on both platforms and not default on
either) that do something about it -- or some filters in the pop3 or http
protocol path (which are not really part of the system).

To get better help, you probably should tell us which ads in what program
you want to get rid of.
