"/addignore mob_name" command while KA is running will work. You can also manually add the names to kissassist_info.ini in your /macros folder. It is sorted by zone. If it is a lot of random named fish, but they're all grey cons, you can use the Pull sections level restrictions to cut them all out.
Sometimes it can be caused by your puller running too close and just getting prox aggro. In that case you may need to play around with your pull MaxRange or PullArcWidth to tighten where the puller will go to get mobs.

Goodness, I need to write this down.
It's all fun & games until you pull a non-aggro raid mob and your group is plowed before you can end the macro and run out of there.
Does it also work while targeting the NPC, to ignore it?
Not to confuse things, but /addignore has 2 parameters that changes the way the add ignore list works. Using /addignore ${Target.CleanName} would be the standard use. This will also add the name to the addignore list and write it to the KissAssist_info.ini file for the current zone.
Using the second parameter changes this to use a dynamic list that is destroyed whenever the macro ends. The second parameter is called ByID. This changes the way the first parameter is used. ByID should be 0 or 1. If the value is 0, then use the first parameter as the mobs name, if the value is 1, then use the first parameter as the mobs ID. When not passing the second parameter the macro assumes ByID to be 0.
So you can have 2 /addignore hot buttons 1 for adding to the permanent list and 1 for mobs you just need to ignore for now.
Option 1 - Add to ignorelist in ini file:
/addignore ${Target.CleanName}
/addignore ${Target.CleanName} 0
Option 2 - Add to temporary list by ID.
/addignore ${Target.ID} 1
All of the above options assume you have the mob you want to ignore targeted.

How do you get the target ID?
I am having issues in Sathir's Tomb where my puller keeps trying to pull "a disenchanted arisen". I have tried to target her and kill her to get the ID# to come up but you cant. I can clear that back room but then puller gets stuck trying to pull that mob and whole room respawns and my puller stays on her and ignores trying to pull anything else.

Did you try making an "ignore" hotkey with the code ctaylor posted? You should be able to make that and target the live mob and hit it.
If the addignore isn't working, you can manually add them to your KissAssist_info.ini in the Macros folder and restart KA on the puller.

What would be cool is if you could open the map window and be able to click on the mobs you want to ignore in your pulling routine (ie mobs that are doubled up or will aggro other mobs nearby bringing 3 or 4! 
PS-If this plugin is ever created could it be named Surfdogs something or other!

@surfdog21 That could be done in a macro, wouldn't be as functional as in a plugin, but it could still be done.
