***Right click the Proxomitron icon in the system tray, and select
"bypass." It's a toggle -- do the same when you want it back on.***

Alternatively, you can add sites to the bypass filter list.

The Proxomitron is more accurately described as a web proxy, not *just* an
ad blocker, and a proxy is going to run full time.

Proxomitron isn't the simplest app to use, but if you give it another go I
think you might be very pleased with everything it can do, especially if
you want complete control over your HTTP connections. With custom filters,
the possibilities are basically endless.
