It's not perfect, but it's better than those ads. Firefox comes with AdBlock Plus enabled by default. Doesn't seem to do much. Actually, I think using a HOSTS file with the thousands of ad delivery services domain names rerouted to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) does a lot more to suppress ads than AdBlock. There's a guy who publishes a substitute HOSTS file for anyone to use to block ad delivery networks. It's so good I've had to relax it a bit; it disables "GoogleAdServices.com" which means if I am interested on a sponsored link in a Google search, or a youTube ad, I can't connect. Yes, sometimes I am intereted in the things being advertised. I haven't bothered "installing" the file on this computer, it is on my7 other computer.
I mean, most advertising is annoying, but if it is mentioning something I use or might be interested in, then I will pay attention, take an interest, or actually click on the ad.. |
