Lucky us, I forgot to remove firefox-33.0.2 and firefox-33.0.3. I will
keep them there, while this is discussed.
I'm almost sure form experimentation thathe ads in the new tab appeared
in firefox-33.1.

I could not understand exactly where I could remove the ads in the
source code.
But, after you start 33.1 and quit, following sed works:
sed -e '/browser.newtabpage.enhanced/ s/true/false/' \
-e '/browser.newtabpage.enhanced/ \
iuser_pref("browser.newtabpage.enabled", false);'
-i ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.profile/prefs.js
I have also the probably most relevant places below, but don't know what
to do with it (each line starts with firefox-33.0.3 or firefox-33.1.0 -
I renamed the directories for these two names. I see places wher I could
change the first sed command, but not the second one.
$ grep -r newtabpage firefox-33.* | grep -E 'enabled|enhanced'
firefox-33.0.3/browser/app/profile/firefox.js:pref("browser.newtabpage.enabled",
true);
