Greets, all.
Just back from a week in the mountains to find something that has bothered me in the past: the ads both here and on the net as a whole. They were always on the net, but the banners at the tops and bottoms of this site in particular brought it back to my attention and I decided to deal with it again. For those that followed my previous fix, you'll know the flaw in that it only blocked google.ads. Text still got through but the worst comes from Flash-imbedded code. Most sites use it as it is harder to block than straight HTML.
If you are using Firefox (platform independent: pc or mac), download and install one of the top Firefox extensions around: the free Adblock Plus. Takes about a minute to install and works like a charm. I only include the link below but check out the video on the right of the main page (watch a few...some are great) as it shows how to install / uninstall.
Always had been listed as a "must have" extension for Firefox as listed in MaximumPC and now I fully agree. While it rightly claims to make surfing the web faster by blocking ad content, I say that it just makes annoying banners and windows go away. guido =
