You can use the HOSTS file, absolutely. I used to do the same. The problem with that is:

You have to know the address of ALL the ad servers in the world
You might still get popup windows, they'll just be blank
You'll be forever adding addresses to that file, get tired of it, and get an ad blocker anyways

Also keep in mind if you feel you're getting an excessive amount of ads, you may be infected with malware. I suggest installing and running Malwarebytes as well.
