Adblock Plus

Post by Bullet Magnet »

I am full of praise for this program, and its available for Firefox on Windows and Linux,
as well as Internet Explorer on Windows. Also for Mac's ™ ®

Here is the link for Internet explorer users

https://adblockplus.org/en/internet-explorer

And for Firefox
https://adblockplus.org/en/firefox

Also available for Mac users using Safari or Firefox, whichever is your weapon of choice for Internet Browsing..
Have a root around here you Mac ™ ® users..

I was prepared to put up with the occasional advert on Youtube, given that they provide a free service, but then the amount of adverts became intolerable, and I felt they were extracting the urine, so I installed Adblock and now, all my videos load instantly, no pop ups, and no adverts anywhere on the Internet.. :up

Trust me, you will notice the difference.. :up

I find that with my meager 2mg Welsh Broadband connection ( that probably terminates via a piece of wet string in a bucket of water somewhere in Outer Mongolia,) my browser is much faster...


Take advantage, install it and if you like it, then maybe make a small donation to help keep the product free of charge..


Now, if only I could remove all the other advertising I am exposed to.. :tk Oh wait, I have, :up
its called not taking any f****** notice !!! :cg

Know thy enemy.. :cool:

I use it as well in my case with Google Chrome, it is very effective, particularly useful is that it also removes facebook adverts.

I'm liking the sound of this. If I'm feeling brave I may well add it to my computer at the weekend. Thanks for the information guys. :wi

I've added this today for Chrome and Firefox as they're my main browsers.
Thanks for the heads up!

Hopefully your web browsing will be faster, since you are not wasting bandwidth on adverts and pop-ups, and unwanted videos plying their trade.. :up

That will be a big bonus. I get sick of waiting for all the crap that I don't want to load and then it fails on the content I do want :x
